Mucocutaneous Pyoderma of the nose- Post-treatment
Mucocutaneous pyoderma can mimic DLE of the nose and biopsy is NOT useful in many cases to distinguish. A three week antimicrobial response trial is the best means to differentiate MCP from DLE and other immune mediated diseases of the nose. Treatment was in this case topical chlorhexidine lotion and three weeks of cephalexin at 25mg/kg 2x day
