Abstract

The case of a 67-year-old man who has had psoriasis with multiple joints involvement for 30 years and renal failure for 1 year is described. He was admitted because of uremic symptoms and exacerbation of psoriasis. Hypocalcemia and low serum active 1,25(OH)₂D₃ were also observed. Hemodialysis, oral 1,25(OH)₂D₃ and CaCO₃ supplement were employed. Interestingly, the psoriasis strikingly improved. The relationships among psoriasis, renal failure, 1,25(OH)₂D₃, serum calcium level and dialysis are discussed.
