Malignant pyoderma

The British Journal of Dermatology
J A Anderson

Abstract

A patient is described who developed multiple areas of inflammatory pyoderma on the face, leading to extensive ulceration. Repeated investigations failed to demonstrate any specific bacteria or fungus responsible and trials of treatment with various antibiotics proved unsuccessful. Histology revealed a granulomatous abscess-like lesion, and the condition resembled what has been described as malignant pyoderma. The patient was successfully treated with oral dapsone and intralesional steroids.
