Perianal psoriasis – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1466273606

Psoriasis of the natal cleft is often asymptomatic but its presence may assist in confirmation of the diagnosis of psoriasis presenting elsewhere when there is uncertainty. Fissures are common and may cause significant discomfort. It is commonly seen in association with involvement of other flexural surfaces or the scalp.
