Psoriasis vulgaris induced by artificial ultraviolet (UV) exposure. Case report.

We report about a 26-year-old female patient who was exposed to artificial ultraviolet radiation in sunbed for 30 minutes and who developed generalized psoriasis vulgaris 24 hours after exposure accompained with arthralgia and exhaustion. Her family history for psoriasis was negative. She never had before any sign of psoriasis on her skin, scalp or nails and had skin type III. She was treated with topical keratolytics and topical corticosteroids. We discussed modest therapy modalities in photosensitive psoriasis.
