Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG), first described by Brocq and named by Brunsting et al., in 1930, is a rare, ulcerating, neutrophilic dermatosis affecting patients any age, with a peak between 40-60 years; diagnosis is based on its clinical morphological features. Approximately 50% of cases are associated with systemic disease. PG is frequently misdiagnosed, leading to a delay in the appropriate medication with corticosteroids.
