Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a very rare disease from the hyperkeratotic papulosquamous disorder group. The rheumatologic manifestations of PRP are extremely rare and less known to clinicians than those of psoriasis. An interesting case of inflammatory arthritis in the hand of an adolescent patient who was successfully treated with adalimumab and compatible with the diagnosis of type IV circumscribed juvenile PRP is presented in the light of the literature.
