Abstract
Psoriasis (Ps) is an autoimmune chronic skin disease with a high prevalence in the general population. Connective tissue diseases (CTD) are also autoimmune disorders of unknown cause with highly variable clinical expression. The combination of CTD and psoriasis is uncommon and has rarely been described. We report two cases of CTD associated with psoriasis: a case of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and a case of Sjogren syndrome (SS)s.
