Abstract

This article contains modern data on the etiology, clinical presentation and treatment as well as the differential diagnosis of a rare dermatosis, Sneddon-Wilkinson disease. Clinical observation of subcorneal pustular dermatosis in a 68-year-old woman is reported. Histopathological examination played a key role in making the correct diagnosis. Treatment consisted of a physiotherapeutic approach (311 nm UVB phototherapy) in combination with systemic glucocorticosteroids (dexamethasone). This therapeutic approach (instead of dapsone therapy) can be used due to its relatively good safety profile.
