Abstract

A 51 year old man presented to the department of Dermatology, Regional University Hospital of Málaga, Málaga, Spain, in May 2013, with remarkable lesions on the perineal, perianal and gluteal regions reaching the top of the lower limbs, which he had first noted two years earlier. The physical examination revealed large erythematous-brownish plaques with a granulomatous appearance, polypoid lesions and areas of ulceration. In addition, Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture and serum QuantiFERON® TB Gold were negative. The patient was diagnosed to have metastatic Crohn’s disease which is an uncommon complication of Crohn’s disease.
