Abstract
Abstract:
Wolf’s isotopic response describes the phenomenon where a new, different skin disorder occurs at the site of a previously healed skin lesion. The most common primary and secondary diseases are herpes zoster and granuloma annulare, respectively. Psoriasis vulgaris is rare as a secondary disease, with only two cases reported. Here, we report another rare case of psoriasis vulgaris following a herpes zoster.
