Zusammenfassung:Three patients presented with widespread guttate psoriasis of explosive onset which involved the palms and soles (exanthematic guttate psoriasis) and followed, in each case, a haemolytic streptococcal throat infection.

This oral finding has not been reported previously in patients with psoriasis.
