AB A  33-year-old  woman  presents  with  uncontrolled  psoriasis  for  20  years.  In  addition  to  the  plaque  psoriasis  (Figure  158-1),  she  has  inverse  psoriasis  (Figure  158-2).  Topical  ultrahigh-potency  steroids  and  topical  calcipotriene  have  not  controlled  her  psoriasis.  The  options  for  phototherapy  and  systemic  therapy  were  discussed.  The  patient  chose  to  try  narrowband  UVB  treatment  in  addition  to  her  topical  therapy.
