Zusammenfassung

Wir berichten über einen Patienten mit psoriatischer Diathese ohne manifeste Psoriasis, bei dem eine Vergrößerung und schmerzhafte Schwellungen beider Großzehen in Kombination mit Nagelwachstumsstörungen und partieller Onycholyse an den Großzehennägeln aufgetreten waren. Unlängst sind solche Krankheitsbilder in der Literatur als psoriatische Onycho-Pachydermo-Periostitis (POPP) zusammengefaßt worden. Anhand unseres Patienten stellen wir diese neue Entität u. W. erstmalig in der deutschsprachigen Literatur vor und diskutieren die Stellung der POPP im Verhältnis zu anderen Formen der Psoriasis arthropathica.

Summary

We describe a patient with painful enlargement and severe nail deformity of both great toes. The patient furthermore presented with some minor diagnostic criteria for psoriasis such as nail pitting and had a positive family history of the disease. In the recent literature, such cases have been recognized as a new entity termed psoriatic onycho-pachydermo-periostitis (POPP). In this case report, POPP is discussed in relationship to other forms of psoriatic arthropathy and with special emphasis regarding its diagnostic criteria and therapeutic implications.
