Abstract
GONZALEZ DE VICENTE, R. et al. Superficial granulomatous pypoderma gangrenosum as a complication in mammoplasty. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2011, vol.37, n.1, pp.51-54. ISSN 1989-2055.
Pyoderma Gangrenosum (PG) is a rare disease whose etiology is unknown, suspecting that could be due to autoimmune disorders. We present 2 cases of Granulomatous PG in mediate postoperatory (3-6 weeks) in patients undergoing mammoplasty (mastopexy with prosthesis). Both cases were solved by treatment with corticosteroids.
Keywords : Pyoderma gangrenosum granulomatous; Mastopexy; Augmentative mammoplasty.
