Summary We wish to report the progress of a patient with pyoderma faciale and Crohn's disease. The patient is interesting in that on two occasions the relapse in her skin condition coincided with the introduction of non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs. Therapy with isotretinoin was effective and well tolerated.
