abstract:
In July 2013 a 43-year-old Caucasian man presented to our outpatient Dermatology clinic with multiple extensive ulcerative lesions on the posterior aspects of both legs, which reportedly appeared some weeks before and had since rapidly extended. The lesions, which were very painful, had first developed as multiple erythemato-violaceous plaques which later became deeply ulcerated, showing irregular margins and a seropurulent bed.
