Abstract

Pioderma gangrenoso é uma dermatose cutânea ulcerativa incomum, associada a uma variedade de doenças sistêmicas, incluindo doença inflamatória intestinal, artrites, neoplasias hematológicas, hepatites e aids. A sua patogênese é desconhecida. O diagnóstico geralmente é baseado em evidências clínicas e confirmado com a exclusão das outras etiologias de lesões ulceradas cutâneas. Relatamos um caso de PG com ulcerações extensas com boa resposta ao tratamento.<br>Pyoderma gangrenosum is an uncommon ulcerative cutaneous dermatosis associated with a variety of systemic diseases including inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis, hematological malignancies, hepatitis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The pathogenesis of pyoderma gangrenosum remains unknown. Its diagnosis is usually based on clinical evidence and confirmed through a process of elimination of the other possible causes of cutaneous ulcers. This report describes a case of pyoderma gangrenosum with extensive ulceration that responded well to treatment.
