Guidelines for sites linking to mayoclinic.orgPyoderma gangrenosum was identified by Mayo Clinic dermatologists in 1930. After it was recognized, many patients were spared from aggressive surgical procedures and amputations, treatments which were shown to be ineffective. More recently, Mayo clinicians contributed research describing the extent to which pyoderma gangrenosum is misdiagnosed. Mayo has tested tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers as a treatment agent.
