PMID: 38465761

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory condition, often beginning in childhood in approximately one-third of cases. It can be associated with various other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease, and thyroid disorders. However, its co-occurrence with Van Wyk Grumbach syndrome has not been described in the pediatric population. This syndrome, resulting from untreated hypothyroidism, is characterized by early puberty and ovarian cysts.
