Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare inflammatory disease of unknown cause, belonging to the group of neutrophilic dermatoses, characterized by painful and recurrent skin ulcerations and commonly associated with autoimmune diseases or neoplasms, although it can also occur independently of these disorders. Ulcerative or classic, bullous, pustular and vegetating forms are the different subtypes. We present a 68-year-old female patient with an ulcerative skin lesion, negative bacteriological and mycological cultures, a skin biopsy showing pyoderma gangrenosum and complementary examinations to rule out associated diseases. No association with systemic diseases was evidenced.

Palabras clave : pyoderma gangrenosum.
