In this series the prevalence of cutaneous manifestations in IBD was 22/1043 (2.1%). EN and PG were more frequent in women with IBD, in CD, and during the acute phases of the underlying disease. EN and PG predominately affect the lower legs. Cutaneous manifestations respond well to an acute phase therapy of the underlying disease. The time to remission was significantly shorter in EN as compared to PG. However, relapses have to be considered in a relevant subgroup of patients.
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.
