Abstract

Introduction: Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a rare papulosquamous disorder characterized by erythroderma, orange-red keratoderma and islands of sparing. There are 6 subtypes based on morphology, with the majority being type I adult PRP. Some cases go into spontaneous remission after 2-3 years. As PRP is a rare condition, there are not RCTs assessing treatment efficacy with treatment recommendations based on case reports and small case series.
