چکیده
Subcorneal pustular dermatosis is a disease that has coalescent, flaccid, recurrent pustules. We do not know everything about its etiology or pathogenesis; however, its autoimmune mechanism links it with neoplastic or immunologic diseases. First line treatment is dapsone. We describe the case of a classic subcorneal pustular dermatosis in a patient in who we could not use dapsone (sulpha drugs allergy), instead we prescribed prednisone and methotrexate, with good clinical evolution.
