| Popis: | Background Pyoderma vegetans (PV) is not a common extra-intestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis (UC), while nasal mucosa PV associated with UC is particularly rare. Case summary We report a 28-year-old female with a history of UC and pyoderma gangrenosum who presented with nasal pain. A nasal lesion could be observed in her nose, and histopathological examination was indicative of PV. The patient was treated with oral prednisone (40 mg per day) with good response and became symptomatically free. There was no recurrent attack after 1 year of follow-up. Conclusion Inflammatory bowel disease patients presenting with nasal pain should be further investigated to rule out the coexistence of nasal mucosa PV. |
