Pyoderma gangrenosum is a rare inflammatory neutrophilic disorder with no uniformly effective therapy and limited high-level evidence. Common therapies include immunosuppressive and immunomodulating agents. There exist several case series using small molecules as treatment modalities. Here, we report a case of a 78-year-old female with a diagnosis of pyoderma gangrenosum and metastatic high-grade serous carcinoma of the ovary who was treated with Baricitinib 4 mg daily in combination with a tapering course of prednisone after failing other conventional therapies including systemic corticosteroids, colchicine, and intravenous immunoglobulin.
