Abstract
A 28-year-old woman with uncomplicated psoriasis vulgaris presented with sp inal hyperostosis and osteitis. The absence of peripheral arthritis, sacroi liitis, and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) raised the poss ibility that the spinal lesion was an extracutaneous manifestation of psori asis. We review the association between uncomplicated psoriasis vulgaris an d skeletal involvement.
