Psoriasis is a chronic papulosquamous disease. Koebner and reverse Koebner reactions have been described. Surgical treatments which produce a reverse Koebner reaction in psoriasis are reviewed and a case of dermabrasion of resistant, hypertrophic plaques is presented. These procedures are to be considered only when conventional therapy fails.
