Which of the following manifestation of CD not respond to treatment/occur after treatment -

A
Pyoderma gangrenosum
B
Primary scleorosing colitis
C
Erythema nodosum
D
Nephrolithiasis
High-Yield Explanation
First-line therapy for disseminated or localized instances of pyoderma gangrenosum is systemic treatment by coicosteroids and ciclosporin. Topical application of clobetasol, mupirocin, and gentamicin alternated with tacrolimus can be effective. Pyoderma gangrenosum ulcers demonstrate pathergy, that is, a worsening in response to minor trauma or surgical debridement. Significant care should be taken with dressing changes to prevent potentially rapid wound growth. Many patients respond differently to different types of treatment, for example some benefit from a moist environment, so treatment should be carefully evaluated at each stage. Papules that begin as small "spouts" can be treated with Dakin's solution to prevent infection and wound clusters also benefit from this disinfectant. Wet to dry applications of Dakins can defeat spread of interior infection. Heavy drainage can be offset with Coban dressings. Grafting is not recommended due to tissue necrosis. If ineffective, alternative therapeutic procedures include systemic treatment with coicosteroids and mycophenolate mofetil; mycophenolate mofetil and ciclosporin; tacrolimus; thalidomide; infliximab; or plasmapheresis Ref Davidson edition23rd pg 813
