초록
Ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease, often exhibits extra-intestinal manifestations including various dermatological problems. Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a painful ulcerative cutaneous disorder characterized by the development of rapidly enlarging nodules. The lesion may become aggravated when ulcerative colitis is active, and it commonly affects the extensor surfaces of the lower extremities but rarely the upper extremities, face, periauricular area, anterior chest, back, or buttocks. We encountered a rare case of PG of the chest wall near the left breast, on the face and pretibial area of a male patient with ulcerative colitis. He had not undergone breast surgery and had no history of trauma. The lesion and symptoms were successfully treated by steroid and mesalazine; there was no need for surgery or more potent drugs.
Abstract
Ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease, often exhibits extra-intestinal manifestations including various dermatological problems. Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a painful ulcerative cutaneous disorder characterized by the development of rapidly enlarging nodules. The lesion may become aggravated when ulcerative colitis is active, and it commonly affects the extensor surfaces of the lower extremities but rarely the upper extremities, face, periauricular area, anterior chest, back, or buttocks. We encountered a rare case of PG of the chest wall near the left breast, on the face and pretibial area of a male patient with ulcerative colitis. He had not undergone breast surgery and had no history of trauma. The lesion and symptoms were successfully treated by steroid and mesalazine; there was no need for surgery or more potent drugs.
