Pyostomatitis vegetans (PV) is a rare inflammatory stomatitis often associated with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Treatment of PV depends on the presence of coexisting IBD. To date, there have been no reports on the use of ustekinumab for PV. There have been recent cases on the use of ustekinumab for treatment of pyoderma gangrenosum and uveitis. We report the case of a 26-year-old female with moderately severe Crohn's disease (CD) and PV who was successfully treated with ustekinumab monotherapy. Since initiation of ustekinumab, she has been in clinical and biochemical remission from a CD and PV standpoint for the last 12 months.
增殖性脓口炎(PV)是一种罕见的炎症性口腔炎,常与炎症性肠病(IBD)相关。PV的治疗取决于是否存在并存的IBD。迄今为止,尚无关于使用乌司奴单抗治疗PV的报道。最近有使用乌司奴单抗治疗坏疽性脓皮病和葡萄膜炎的病例。我们报告一例26岁患有中度重度克罗恩病(CD)和PV的女性患者,其接受乌司奴单抗单药治疗获得成功。自开始使用乌司奴单抗以来,从CD和PV的角度来看,她在过去12个月中一直处于临床和生化缓解状态。
