Risk factorsSAPHO syndrome

Pustulosis palmaris et plantaris is a chronic recurrent type of localized pustular psoriasis on the palms and soles only, characterized histologically by intraepidermal pustules filled with neutrophils.[2]: 411, 628 [3]

It can occur as part of the SAPHO syndrome.[4]

Treatment

Systematic reviews show evidence to support the use of systemic retinoids alone and in combination with photochemotherapy to improve symptoms of chronic palmoplantar pustulosis, with a combination more effective than one alone. There is also evidence to support topical steroids under hydrocolloid occlusion dressings, low dose ciclosporin, tetracyclines, and Grenz-Ray Therapy. There is no evidence to support the use of hydroxyurea in chronic palmoplantar pustulosis.[5]

Treatment with guselkumab, an anti–interleukin 23 monoclonal antibody has shown a decrease in the size of the area affected and severity.[6]
