Down syndrome is the most common chromosomal disorder associated with skin conditions, including psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa. Patients with Down syndrome are more likely to be overweight or obese and diagnosed with metabolic comorbidities such as cardiovascular disorders, inflammatory joint diseases as in psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa.
