Successful treatment of acrodermatitis continua suppurativa with topical tacrolimus 0.1% ointment.
    The British journal of dermatology, 2004, Volume: 150, Issue:6

    Acrodermatitis continua suppurativa of Hallopeau (ACS) is a rare pustular variant of psoriasis in which numerous treatment modalities have been used without any consistent long-term effect. We report for the first time two patients with ACS which was successfully treated with topical tacrolimus 0.1% ointment. Our observations raise hopes that this new treatment strategy for ACS may constitute a novel effective therapeutic option for this recalcitrant condition.

Successful treatment of acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau with sequential combination of calcipotriol and tacrolimus ointments.
    Dermatology (Basel, Switzerland), 2005, Volume: 211, Issue:4

    Acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH) is a rare type of pustular psoriasis affecting the digits. We report on a 43-year-old female patient who had been suffering from ACH for more than 20 years. Despite the fact that the disease was localized on one finger during the whole period, several topical and systemic treatments resulted in only temporary or partial improvement of the lesion. Although the monotherapies with calcipotriol and tacrolimus ointments gave no satisfying results in the long-term management of the disease, the combination of both agents led to a continuous improvement of the patient's skin condition.
