Abstract
Summary: An association of pyoderma gangrenosum and active chronic hepatitis is reported. In view of the well known occurrence of pyoderma gangrenosum in ulcerative colitis and in other diseases based on a disturbance of the immune system, the absence of the expected combination of pyoderma gangrenosum and active chronic hepatitis from previously reported series was surprising. This further report of such an association is therefore both expected and significant.
