ABSTRACT
Inverse [flexural] psoriasis is characterized by shiny, pink to red, sharply-demarcated thin plaques. Frequency of isolated involvement of these areas is very rare and the morphology is frequently altered by maceration and friction. All this leads to diagnostic confusion. We describe two cases of inverse psoriasis with isolated involvement of axillae. One patient presented with dry mildly scaly plaque, while the other presented with macerated plaque. Histopathology was consistent with the diagnosis of inverse psoriasis. Although there are previous reports, but localization of lesions only to axillae in a case of inverse psoriasis is unique
