GAVIRIA CASTELLANOS, Jorge Luis et al. Pyoderma gangrenosum associated with burns: two-case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2020, vol.46, n.1, pp.79-84.  Epub 25-Mayo-2020. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922020000100012.

Pyoderma gangrenosum is a rare, chronic, and idiopathic dermatosis, characterized by pustules and coalescent ulcers. It usually develops on previously traumatized skin, especially on the lower extremities and trunk. It is associated with systemic diseases, and surgical treatments tend to worsen clinical signs and symptoms as a result of pathergy. There is no treatment of choice, but immunosuppressive therapy is accepted.

Two cases of pyoderma gangrenosum associated with burns, an entity rarely collected in the literature, are presented, with different approaches and courses.

Palabras clave : Pyoderma gangrenosum; Burns; Dermatosis.
