ABSTRACT
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a neutrophilic dermatosis characterized by painful ulcerated lesions. Postoperative PG, which typically begins with erythema and severe pain within two weeks after surgery, progresses into ulcerated lesions. It is often misdiagnosed as it resembles necrotizing skin infections, resulting in delayed treatment. Cases of postoperative PG located in the upper extremity are uncommon. In this case report, we discuss a male patient who developed postoperative PG after carpal tunnel surgery.
