Psoriatic onycho-pachydermo-periostitis (POPP)is a rare subset of psoriatic arthritis, characterized by onychopathy, painful thickening of the periungual soft tissues, and radiological features consisting of an exuberant periosteal reaction of the terminal phalanx. The POPP treatment is debated, and side effect risk of therapies may not be offset by their benefits. We report on a successful treatment with carnitine in a 15-year old boy suffering from POPP.
银屑病甲-厚皮-骨膜炎（POPP）是一种罕见的银屑病关节炎亚型，其特征为甲病、甲周软组织疼痛性增厚和影像学特征，包括末端指骨的骨膜反应过度。POPP 的治疗存在争议，且治疗的副作用风险可能不会超过其益处。我们报告了一例 15 岁男孩成功使用肉毒碱治疗 POPP 的案例。
