Pyoderma vegetans (PV) is a rare inflammatory disorder characterized by vegetating pustules and plaques affecting the skin and mucosal membranes. It is believed that this entity is mostly associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), chronic malnutrition, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), malignancies, and other immunocompromised states. Pyoderma vegetans occurs more commonly in young and...

Pyoderma vegetans is a rare disorder that more commonly affects middle-aged persons, with a male predilection. It is characterized by vegetating lesions that coalescence into a plaque with eroded surface, covered by purulent discharge and crusts. The etiology of this disease is not known with certainty, but it is often associated with bacterial infections in immunocompromised patients. We repor...

some dermatologic manifestations are common in ulcerative colitis (uc). herein, we present a 36-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis and uncommon nasal mucosa pyoderma vegetans. the patient presented to our hospital with symptoms of active colitis and a concomitant 3×4×5 cm dermato-mucosal lesion in her left nasal lumen. after surgery of the mucosal lesion, the treatment for her active coliti...

Superficial granulomatous pyoderma (SGP) or pyoderma vegetans is a rare inflammatory disease first described by Wilson-Jones and Winkelmann in 1988. Although considered a superficial, vegetative variant of pyoderma gangrenosum (PG), SGP has distinguishing features such as a chronic and slowly progressive course, lack of association with other diseases, shallower ulcers, the presence on histolog...
