Abstract
|
|
|
erma gangrenosum is an uncommon, chronic, painful, ulcreating skin disease originally
described by Brusting and colleagues in 1930. The lesions have a distinctive clinical
appearance of necrotic ulceration with a mucopurulent base and a violaceous underminded
border surrouned by a peripheral zone of erythema. Pyoderma gangrenosm typically occurs
most frequently on the lower limbs, and there is often a history of preceding minor trauma.
Many adult patients have associated systemic abnormalities: arthritis, inflammatory bowel
disease, and monoclonal gammapathy being the most common. Recently, we experienced a
case of 18-year old women with pyoderma gangrenosum associated with ulcerative colitis.
Treatment with corticosteroids, sulfasalazine improved the symptoms of ulcerative colitis
and the skin lesions. The case is presented with the review of literatures.
