Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a severe inflammatory disease characterized by recurrent eruptions of sterile pustules on erythematous skin. Although tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists may lead to a rapid resolution of GPP, the mechanism of action of these agents remains to be investigated. Here, we sought to evaluate markers of immune response in the skin of a patient who experienced a rapid amelioration of GPP after treatment with infliximab and acitretin.
