Psoriasiform dermatoses represent a wide array of skin diseases commonly encountered by clinicians and pathologists. While they may present a diagnostic challenge, thorough observation coupled with proper interpretation of subtle additional clinical or histopathologic features provide clues to the correct diagnosis. In this review, we provide updates on emerging entities and develop a systemic approach to establish the pathologic diagnosis, with emphasis on the importance of clinicopathologic correlation.
