We read with interest the report by Shakshouk et al. discussing cutaneous ulcers in setting of ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV). These ulcers were diagnosed as pyoderma gangrenosum (PG)-like ulcers, and authors aimed to differentiate these from classical PG. Characteristics of PG-like ulcers in association with AAV remain obscure, and differentiation from PG is not only challenging but perhaps also unnecessary.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
