Forma mais comum e reconhecível de pitiríase rubra pilar. Apresenta-se como uma erupção eritematosa escamosa de rápida evolução que é inicialmente folicular, mas tipicamente progride para eritrodermia, dentro da qual caracteristicamente permanecem pequenas ilhas de pele não envolvida. Sem tratamento, tende a resolver-se espontaneamente após uma média de três anos. Afeta igualmente os sexos com maior incidência entre os 40 e os 60 anos de idade. A causa é pouco compreendida, embora mutações de ganho de função no gene CARD14 tenham sido relacionadas a formas genéticas raras da doença. | |||
