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.
坏疽性脓皮病（PG）是一种以疼痛性溃疡病变为特征的嗜中性皮肤病。术后PG通常在手术后两周内开始出现红斑和剧痛，进而发展为溃疡性病变。由于它类似于坏死性皮肤感染，常常被误诊，导致治疗延误。上肢发生术后PG的病例并不常见。在本病例报告中，我们讨论了一名男性患者，他在腕管手术后发生了术后PG。
