Post-surgical pyoderma gangrenosum (PSPG) of the breast is a rare dermatosis that worsens surgical manipulation, with a chronical relapsing course. Diagnosis is mostly clinical and made by exclusion after the failure of antibiotic therapies and surgical debridement, while the mainstay of therapy is corticosteroid-based. Here we report a case of PSPG of the breast in a young woman with breast cancer, to emphasize the needs of an early and accurate diagnosis, to guarantee the most efficacious treatment and to avoid life-threatening complications.
乳房手术后坏疽性脓皮病（PSPG）是一种罕见的皮肤病，会因手术操作而恶化，呈慢性复发性病程。诊断主要依靠临床检查，并在抗生素治疗和外科清创失败后通过排除法得出，而治疗的主要手段是基于皮质类固醇的治疗。在此，我们报告了一例年轻女性乳腺癌合并乳房 PSPG 的病例，以强调早期准确诊断的必要性，以确保最有效的治疗并避免危及生命的并发症。
