Abstract

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor–induced palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) can present with debilitating, refractory disease that requires changing or stopping anti-TNF agents or adding systemic treatments. Here, we report an update of a previously reported case of severely recalcitrant PPP successfully treated with the Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor tofacitinib.
