Abstract
ABSTRACTAn 11‐year‐old girl and her 7‐year‐old sister, both with guttate psoriasis, both showed chronic tonsillitis and proteinuria. The ASO titer of the elder sister was 480 units and that of the younger sister 320 units. Tonsillectomies were performed on both sisters because they developed guttate psoriasis after colds with severe sore throats and proteinuria. Skin lesions improved markedly and proteinuria disappeared, but ASO titers did not change significantly. HLA studies were made of the sisters and their parents; A1 and B37 were confirmed in both sisters and their mother.
