Mucocutaneous pyoderma is a disease of unknown aetiology affecting mucocutaneous skin and is responsive to antibacterial therapy. It is reported to affect the lips, nasal planum, nares, perioral skin and less commonly, the eyelids, vulva, prepuce and anus. Three cases of mucocutaneous pyoderma are presented. Two of the cases showed ulcerative lesions in the inguinal and axillary regions in addition to more typically reported lesions. Two of the dogs had concurrent atopic dermatitis and the third had clinical signs suggestive of hyper-sensitivity disease. The clinical and histopathological features, differentiation of mucocutaneous pyoderma from discoid lupus erythematosus, and long-term management of mucocutaneous pyoderma are discussed.

Materials And Methods: Prospective study included 162 out-patients with IBD who were managed in the tertiary care center.

- Pyodermatitis-pyostomatitis vegetans (PPV) is a rare disease indicated by pustules that often signals inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with oral manifestations known as pyostomatitis vegetans (PSV).
- A study analyzed various cases of PSV from literature to identify key diagnostic features, including specific appearances of oral lesions and their relation to IBD.
- The research found 77 PSV cases with helpful diagnosis indicators but noted the lack of a standardized treatment approach, which typically involves multiple medications like corticosteroids and immunosuppressives, and highlighted a high risk of oral lesion recurrence upon dosage changes.
