Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects approximately 3% of the population. Up to 50% of patients with psoriasis have concurrent nail psoriasis, up to 30% of patients with skin psoriasis also have psoriatic arthritis and of these, approximately 80% have nail disease. The treatment of nail psoriasis is often challenging, and there is a need for new therapeutic options. Effective biological agents used in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis may represent a new therapeutic modality for this disease. A case of rapid improvement is reported in nail psoriasis under etanercept monotherapy with maintained efficacy following the withdrawal of continued therapy.
