Cameo Cutaneous Wegener's granulomatosis (malignant pyoderma) in a patient with Crohn's disease.

We report a case of an unusual presentation of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) in a patient with Crohn's disease (CD). She presented to our Wound Care Center with 7th cranial nerve palsy and facial pyoderma-like ulcerations. Although WG has a predilection for the lung, kidney, and eyes, cutaneous involvement can be seen in 50% of the cases, and it can be the presenting sign in 9–14%. Because of the lethality of WG if not properly treated, the diagnosis is imperative. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
