title: Remission of psoriasis with etidronate treatment of underlying Paget's disease of bone.
abstract: The case is reported of a 64-year-old man in whom psoriasis developed in relation to Paget's disease of the underlying bone. Treatment of Paget's disease was associated with remission of psoriasis. We suggest that local hyperaemia is the common link in this association and that this lends support to the theory that vascular factors are important in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.
