Abstract

A few case stories have described patients with psoriasis who suffered from nerve injury which resulted in clearance of psoriasis (1, 2). Recently three reports have addressed a positive effect of botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT-A) injections in patients with psoriasis (3-5). BoNT-A inhibits neuropeptide releasement and inflammatory cytokines(6), thus the hypothesis was that blocking neuromodulator could lower neurogenic inflammation resulting in improvement of psoriasis.
