Summary Anti‐tumour necrosis factor‐α therapy of Crohn's disease (CD) with infliximab has proved a major advance in the treatment of patients with difficult disease. We report our experience of the use of infliximab in a patient with recalcitrant vulval CD. The introduction of infliximab has improved disease control, although a search for an optimum remittive dosing schedule is ongoing.
