Pyoderma gangrenosum is a challenging disease to manage, due in part to the lack of approved treatment therapies. Recently, the emergence of biologic agents has expanded treatment options, with tumour necrosis factor alpha inhibitors being the best supported in the literature. In our report, we present a 50-year-old female with pyoderma gangrenosum who was successfully treated with the anti-interleukin-17 biologic agent, secukinumab, after failing other systemic therapies.
