Abstract

The term Pseudoainhum is used in medical literature to elaborate the presence of constricting bands around the digits of hands and feet due to variety of etiologies. This phenomenon can lead to irreversible damage to the supplying neurovasculature and sequential autoamputation of the affected digits. The report herein, describes the rare presentation of pseudoainhum occurring concomitantly in acute psoriasis. Timely recognition of such rare disease entities by physicians is imperative to avoid unnecessary complications.
