Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare type of psoriasis with potentially life-threatening implications. Mutations in IL36RN gene have been suggested to be causative or predisposing factors for GPP. ⋯ Our study provided more evidence that GPP and PV are distinct subtypes of psoriasis caused by different pathogenesis, and GPP alone could be regarded as an especial entities of GPP which is different from GPP with PV on the etiology.
