Abstract

Severe psoriasis is associated with an enhanced risk of cardiovascular (CV) diseases. The potential impact of psoriasis on the prognosis
following coronary revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or surgical) is not well studied and sparse
data available in literature points towards a grim long-term prognosis. The following two cases highlight this phenomenon. We also
discuss the plausible reasons responsible for the poor prognosis and propose some possible mechanisms for the same
