Could Dialysis Cause Koebner Phenomenon and Pyoderma Gangrenosum?

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis, with incidence estimated to be 3 to 10 cases per million people per year.9 Although some correlation between dialysis, renal failure, and PG has been suggested in literature internationally, the topic has not been fully explored.

      ab: Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis, with incidence estimated to be 3 to 10 cases per million people per year.9 Although some correlation between dialysis, renal failure, and PG has been suggested in literature internationally, the topic has not been fully explored. This report highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges posed by new onset PG in the context of renal failure and dialysis, emphasizing the importance of early recognition, and individually-tailored management strategies. Our findings aim to shed light on the likely link between PG and dialysis, emphasizing a need for further research to optimize care in such patients.
