Pyoderma gangrenosum treated with clofazimine. Report of three cases.

E C Kark, B R Davis, J R Pomeranz.   

Abstract

Three cases of pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) responsive to clofazimine are reported. The ulcers were recalcitrant to other forms of therapy, and the patients were incapacitated. Healing began within 2 or 3 weeks. To our knowledge, these are the first reported cases of PG responsive to clofazimine in the United States.
