Acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH) is a rare pustular psoriasis variant refractory to many conventional treatments. We report the successful treatment with secukinumab of a patient with a long history of ACH with marked onychodystrophy with frank pustulosis on the nail bed and with accompanying arthritis. Blockade of the IL-17 receptor A has shown promise in the treatment of psoriatic erythroderma and generalized pustular psoriasis not responsive to conventional treatment. A rapid response was observed in our patient, in both skin lesions and arthritic symptoms, underlining the ability of secukinumab to improve symptoms beyond those of plaque psoriasis
