  • Title: Pyoderma gangrenosum after cesarean delivery.
    Author: Rönnau AC, von Schmiedeberg S, Bielfeld P, Ruzicka T, Schuppe HC.
    Journal: Am J Obstet Gynecol; 2000 Aug; 183(2):502-4. PubMed ID: 10942497.
    Abstract:
    In this reported case of pyoderma gangrenosum after cesarean delivery, deep ulceration involved the entire lower abdomen before immunosuppressive treatment was started. Initial high doses of prednisolone followed by low doses of cyclosporine A led to complete resolution of the skin lesions. This case report illustrates the importance of early diagnosis and effective systemic immunosuppressive therapy of pyoderma gangrenosum.
