Abstract
Generalized pustular psoriasis appears as an uncommon variant form of psoriasis consisting of widespread pustules on an erythematous background (von Zumbusch). A 39-year old male patient with a history of plaque psoriasis since the age of 9 who had an acute onset of generalized pustular psoriasis 12 days after he underwent renal transplantation is presented. Despite administered immunosuppression for transplantation the addition of cyclosporine A and methotrexate did not reverse the ongoing process of disease and the patient died on the 57th post-transplant day due to multiorgan failure following severe bone marrow suppression.
