Simultaneous occurrence of Pyoderma Gangrenosum and Palmoplantar
Pustular Psoriasis: Is it an association or coincidental findings?
Abstract
A female presented with Palmoplantar Pustular psoriasis (PPP) followed
by Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) on bilateral legs. Complete remission was
achieved with methotrexate and prednisolone. Both dermatoses have female
preponderance, similar immuno-pathologic mechanisms and rapid treatment
response, suggests a possible etiological relation between the two and
not a coincidental finding.
