Abstract
Apical pulmonary fibrosis has been established as a non-articular complication of ankylosing spondylitis. Although psoriasis is frequently associated with arthropathy and spondylitis, there is only one previous report of apical fibrosis occurring in a patient with psoriasis. We report two patients with psoriasis complicated by apical pulmonary disease in whom extensive investigations were negative.
