Although pyoderma gangrenosum may occur on any area of the body it is most commonly found on the lower extremities. Involvement of the external genitalia is rare. We report a case of pyoderma gangrenosum involving the penile and scrotal skin associated with ulcerative colitis. The cutaneous genital lesions were the major presenting manifestations of an underlying chronic inflammatory bowel disease. © 1982 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited byGONZALGO M, de LACERDA D, DE MARZO A and CHAN D (2018) Persistent Purulent Drainage From the Glans Penis: Atypical Presentation of Pyoderma GangrenosumJournal of Urology, VOL. 169, NO. 5, (1793-1794), Online publication date: 1-May-2003.Baskin L, Dixon C, Stoller M and Carroll P (2018) Pyoderma Gangrenosum Presenting as Fournier's GangreneJournal of Urology, VOL. 144, NO. 4, (984-986), Online publication date: 1-Oct-1990.Mcdowell G, Hayden L and Wise H (2018) Penile Necrosis Secondary to an Indwelling Foley CatheterJournal of Urology, VOL. 138, NO. 5, (1243-1244), Online publication date: 1-Nov-1987.Bour J and Steinhardt G (2018) Penile Necrosis in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus and End Stage Renal DiseaseJournal of Urology, VOL. 132, NO. 3, (560-562), Online publication date: 1-Sep-1984.Weinberg A, Lieskovsky G, McGehee W and Skinner D (2018) Warfarin Necrosis of the Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue of the Male External GenitaliaJournal of Urology, VOL. 130, NO. 2, (352-354), Online publication date: 1-Aug-1983.
