Özet

Systemic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use may result in various cutaneous complications including maculopapular rash, fixed drug eruption, urticaria, and angioedema most frequently. However extensive cutaneous ulcers in relation to intravenous dexketoprofen trometamol use has not been identified before although cutaneous ulcers have been described in association with several opioids. Herein, we would like to present a 27-year-old male with a 1-year history of progressive deep cutaneous ulcers due to long term abusive intravenous use of dexketoprofen trometamol.
