    Author: Zampese MS, Bakos L, Kuhl IC, Wissbluth ML.
    Journal: Med Cutan Ibero Lat Am; 1986; 14(3):205-11. PubMed ID: 3526048.
    Abstract:
    The term "metastatic" Crohn's disease is used to define the cutaneous lesions, distant from the gastrointestinal tract and separated from other ulcerations by normal skin, showing granulomatous histology. A case of Crohn's disease with metastatic ulcerations of the vulva, perineum, submammary folds, groins and abdominal fold is presented. In the literature only 26 similar cases were found. Cutaneous manifestations associated to Crohn's disease, its classification and treatment are commented. The excellent response of our case to metronidazole is stressed.
