title: Pyoderma Gangrenosum in Crohn's Disease: Unusual Presentation and Management.
abstract: Pyoderma gangrenosum is an uncommon, destructive, cutaneous ulceration which presents as ulcerative, pustular, bulluous and vegetative forms, the ulcerative forms being more common. We present the case of 41-year-old woman with Crohn's disease who presented with a rather unusual form of pyoderma gangrenosum, aseptic cutaneous abscess. It was initially misdiagnosed as a fistulous tract in the abdominal wall, but later prompt diagnosis of pyoderma gangrenosum led to a very satisfactory outcome.
