Generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy is a rare dermatosis with potential serious consequences for both the mother and fetus. Treatment is difficult and historically steroids were the mainstay of treatment. Cyclosporin has been used for a few cases resistant to steroids. We report our own experience of two cases of generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy. Cases of generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy need review by a dermatologist with experience of skin disorders in pregnancy. Both the fetus and mother need to be monitored closely when systemic illness occurs, as there is a risk of stillbirth. Maternal sepsis is a known complication of generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy. Cyclosporin, when used appropriately is effective and relatively safe.

When dermatological eruptions present diagnostic uncertainty, there is cause for concern, especially when treating the mother of an unborn child. While cutaneous outbreaks in pregnancy can be benign, suspicious disseminating rashes should warrant further investigation. We present a case of generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy that manifested in an atypical fashion and could have been overlooked without the utilization of biopsy and histopathological analysis. Due to reports of unfavorable maternal-fetal outcomes, prompt evaluation and treatment is critical.
