Unusual association between erythema nodosum and autoimmune atrophic gastritis.

We report a case of a 46-year-old woman with a history of autoimmune atrophic gastritis and recurrent erythema nodosum (EN). Laboratory results showed iron-deficiency anaemia, positive antiparietal cell antibodies and marginal deficiency of vitamin B12. Although EN was refractory to general measures (rest and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and corticosteroid therapy, it was successfully treated with vitamin B12 supplementation. © BMJ Publishing Group Ltd (unless otherwise stated in the text of the article) 2018.
