A fascinating post — thanks for uploading the link. It is interesting to note that vasculitis was part of the histopathological picture. C. pneumoniae has been associated with a similar chronic inflammatory condition, pyoderma gangrenosum by Chuck Stratton and colleagues. Here’s the link: Culture and immunohistochemical evidence of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection in ulcerative pyoderma gangrenosum.Sams HH, Mitchell WM, Stratton CW, King LE Jr.J Am Acad Dermatol. 2003 Jun;48(6):966-9. Pyoderma gangrenosum is a rare but very unpleasant condition; it is sometimes associated with Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis.
