Extensive studies [ailed to show an etiological agent. Therapy with antibiotics, anti[ungal agents, topical medications, and corticosteroids did not result in healing o[ his skin lesions. He had hypergammaglobulinemia with increase in all o[ the three main immunoglobulins, and plasmacytosis of the bone marrow. Treatment with 6-mercaptopurine resulted in complete healing of the skin lesions. One year a[ter cessation of therapy he developed acute leukemia. The association of immunoglobulin disorders with pyoderma gangrenosum and the relationship between autoimmune diseases, immunosuppressive therapy, and the development o[ leukemias and lymphomas are discussed.
