Özet
Psoriasis, with a worldwide prevalence of 2-3%, is now assumed as a systemic chronic inflammatory disease accompanied by comorbidities while it was accepted as a disease limited only to the skin in the past. There are several classifications of the comorbidities which are more common in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. Simply, comorbidities can be classified as classic, emerging, related to lifestyle, related to treatment. They can also be categorized as medical comorbidities, psychiatric/psychologic comorbidities, and behaviors contributing to medical and psychiatric comorbidities. In this review, providing early diagnosis and treatment of comorbidities, learning screening recommendations for early detection and long-term disease control and improvement in life quality by integrated, multidisciplinary approach were targeted.
