ABSTRACT

Inflammatory or infectious conditions affecting the skin around an intestinal stoma are common and may be a source of considerable aggravation to patients. Recognition and prompt appropriate treatment of these conditions improves their quality of life. Peristomal pyoderma gangrenosum represents a most unusual peristomal skin condition that is difficult to treat; resolution often requires diagnosis and therapy of underlying inflammatory bowel disease.
