To the Editor: I would kindly like to remind your readers that pyoderma gangrenosum–like lesions also occur in Behçet disease, as is stated in a comment on the study "Risk of developing pyoderma gangrenosum after procedures in patients with a known history of pyoderma gangrenosum—A retrospective analysis."1 As the authors mentioned, the pathergy phenomenon is associated with pyoderma gangrenosum, but pathergy can also be seen in other conditions such as Behçet disease.2 Although very rare, pyoderma gangrenosum–like lesions are one of the clinical manifestations of Behçet disease.
