Pustular Psoriasis (Zumbusch)

Pustular Psoriasis (Zumbusch) Abstract The original reports of impetigo herpetiformis (Hebra)1 in 1872, acrodermatitis continua (Hallopeau)2 in 1890, and psoriasis pustulosa (Zumbusch)5 in 1910 were followed by a number of articles and case reports, the main purpose of which was either to regard them as distinct entities or to group them on the basis of certain common clinical findings. This has led to considerable confusion and misunderstanding. In Table 1 we have presented schematically these attempts as based upon a review of the literature.
