Abstract
A 55-year-old white man, a rural worker who did not smoke or consume alcohol, was referred to the oral medicine outpatient clinic of the School of Dentistry, São Paulo State University (UNESP), (Araçatuba, Brazil), for an extensive lesion in the palate; the lesion had evolved over a period of 3 years. In anamnesis, the patient reported that 9 years before he presented to our clinic, the ulcerated and painful facial skin lesions with fast evolution had been diagnosed as pyoderma gangrenosum, which was treated with 30 sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
