Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory non-infectious skin disease with a multifactorial etiology. It can occur along with other immune-mediated diseases, including non-specific intestinal inflammation. Our understanding of the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms has deepened substantially in recent decades and is developing together with new therapies targeting pathways and pro-inflammatory cytokines that have been described in association with the disease. Psoriasis and IBD not only have significant overlap, but there are also differences that affect therapy.
