title: Sarcoidosis and pyoderma gangrenosum: an exceptional association. The role of trauma and immunosuppressive agents.
abstract: The coexistence of sarcoidosis and pyoderma gangrenosum has rarely been reported. We have found only three cases in our review of the literature. Herein, we report a new case and discuss the role of trauma and immunosuppression in the development of PG, and the efficacy of cyclosporin A in PG and sarcoidosis.
