Abstract
|
|
|
|
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare, painful, chronic, ulcerating skin disease of an unknown etiology. It can be associated with systemic diseases such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, myeloproliferative disease, monoclonal gammopathy, rheumatoid arthritis and Behcet’s disease, or after minor trauma and surgery. To the best our knowledge, no cases of PG associated with pregnancy have ever been published in the Korean medical literature, and there have been only ten such reported cases in other countries. Herein, we report on a case of PG that developed during pregnancy in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis.
