[Pyoderma gangrenosum, ovarian carcinoma treated with Melphalan and acute myelomonocytic leukaemia: report of one case and literature review (author's transl)].
A 67-year-old woman suffered from an ovarian carcinoma with lymph nodes metastasis. During 3 years, she was treated with alkylating agents (Melphalan). At the end of therapy, no recurrence was observed. Two years later, she developed concomitantly pyoderma gangrenosum and acute myelomonocytic leukaemia. Death occurred rapidly. The association between pyoderma gangrenosum and acute leukaemia is discussed in the light of 16 cases previously reported in the literature. In this case, an induction of leukaemia by cytostatic drugs seems likely. The authors conclude that pyoderma gangrenosum may be considered as a cutaneous signs of acute leukaemia.

Pyoderma gangraenosum (dermatitis ulcerosa) and monoclonal (IgA) globulin healed after melphalan treatment. Case report and review of the literature.
Since 1968 we have been treating a patient, who has had a combination of pyoderma gangraenosum (dermatitis ulcerosa) and signs that may indicate early multiple myeloma. She also had carcinoma of the colon, which was successfully operated. The pyoderma healed later after intensive and successful cytostatic treatment of the "myeloma". The ulcers remain practically healed and the protein pattern is normal in May 1977. Such cases are rare and a search in the literature has not been very rewarding. In our own series of more than 200 cases with myeloma this combination is unique. The lieterature is discussed in detail with data on the follow-up on some of the patients.
