The most common presentation of PG is spontaneous rapid formation of an extremely painful ulcer on the extremities, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Rarely, PG can also occur as a chronic peristomal complication or as an acute postoperative complication of a surgical wound. The clinical course is unpredictable; it may not correlate with IBD activity and may even precede a diagnosis of IBD. Pyoderma gangrenosum is a diagnosis of exclusion. Treatment is challenging, often involving a variety of immunosuppressive therapies. This review aims to provide an update for the gastroenterologist on the pathogenesis, presentation, diagnosis, and management of PG, a rare complication of IBD. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: pictorial review tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
