Annular and circinate pustular psoriasis – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/2045991554

Patterns of subacute or chronic pustular psoriasis which may be confused with erythema annulare centrifugum. Lesions begin as discrete areas of erythema which become raised and oedematous before expanding centrifugally to form annular and circinate plaques. Pustules appear at the advancing margins and leave a trailing fringe of scale as the plaques enlarge.
