Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis with periods of exacerbation and remission. Prevalence of psoriasis is estimated at 1–3% of the population of Europe and the United States of America. The disease process may affect the skin, nails and joints. Perception of psoriasis as not only a skin disease, but a systemic inflammatory disease that affects the functioning of the entire body has changed over the years. Patients suffering from psoriasis more often than the general population suffer from many comorbidities. Little data is available on the comorbidity of psoriasis and pancreatic diseases. The relationship between the coexistence of psoriasis and chronic pancreatitis seems to the most interesting and worth further studies.
