Abstract

Three cases of pyoderma gangraenosum were associated with Takayasu arteritis (pulseless disease), characterized by disappearance of pulse, hypertension and/or aortic insufficiency. Another 11-year-old boy, suffering from a serious congenital heart malformation, presented skin lesions of pyoderma gangraenosum. In spite or rather low incidence of association of ulcerative colitis (10.4 p. 100), Japanese cases show frequent association of cardiovascular diseases, especially Takayasu arteritis (27.1 p. 100).
