The present authors report the case of a 9‐year‐old boy affected by psoriasis, juvenile psoriatic arthritis, enthesitis, and celiac disease. The signs and symptoms of the different comorbitities appeared at different times in the clinical history, complicating the overall diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Cooperation between dermatologists and rheumatologist is mandatory in similar cases, where sophisticated technology and teams with specialized and integrated knowledge are required.
