Abstract: Pustular psoriasis is characterized clinically by yellowish sterile pustules surrounded by erythema. Pustular psoriasis in children is very rare and could be appear following steroid withdrawal in psoriasis vulgaris. Psoriasis in children usualy mild and can be managed with topical treatment, which is considered as the first-line therapy. Misuse of topical and systemic steroid in children could lead to Cushing’s syndrome. It is a multisystem disorder resulting from prolonged exposure to excess glucocorticoids, both systemic or topical. Children could easily develop systemic reactions to topical steroids due to their higher ratio of total body surface area to body weight. Here we reported a case of generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) in a 14-year-old girl who had suffered from Cushing’s syndrome due to misuse of oral and topical steroid.
