Crohn's
disease, a chronic relapsing, multisystemic, inflammatory
disorder, may involve any part of the gastrointestinal
tract and shows a cobblestone-like appearance on
intestinal mucosa. There are also extraintestinal
features, including lesions of the skin, eye, and
joints. Ulcers, fissures, sinus tracts, abscesses,
and vegetant plaques have been reported for the
periana1 skin lesions of Crohn's disease. We experienced
a case of Crohn's disease in a 21-year-old Korean
female showing a skin lesion with a cobblestone-like
appearance in the perianal region. (Ann Dermatol
