Abstract
- Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare and severe skin condition that causes recurrent pustules and unpredictable flares. It is more burdensome and psychologically distressing than plaque psoriasis. GPP management is challenging due to limited awareness, misdiagnosis, and the lack of treatment guidelines. Raising awareness, educating patients, and improving the patient journey can help optimize GPP management. New therapies like spesolimab offer hope for effective treatment and reducing mortality and hospitalization. Multilevel support, including education for healthcare professionals and improved communication among multidisciplinary teams, is necessary for optimal GPP management. [Extracted from the article]
