Subcorneal pustular dermatosis in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis and diffuse scleroderma

: We report a case of subcorneal pustular dermatosis (SPD) in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and diffuse scleroderma. Although SPD has been described in association with RA, it has not been reported in association with diffuse scleroderma to our knowledge. This observation supports the hypothesis linking immune dysfunction as a common pathogenesis of these three entities.
