Abstract
Pityriasis lichenoides chronica, a papulosquamous disorder often considered a subtype of pityriasis lichenoides. It is considered a clonal T-cell disorder, which may be associated with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma that may develops in response to foreign antigens. We present a 38-year-old male patient with ankylosing spondylitis who was on treatment with etanercept. After 8 weeks of treatment, the patient presented with scaly erythematous papules, on the back and arms. He was diagnosed clinically with pityriasis lichenoides chronica. Pityriasis lichenoides chronica should be included among the broad clinical spectrum of chronic inflammatory skin diseases which may occur during treatment with TNF-alpha antagonists.
