Summary We report two cases of superficial granulomatous pyoderma (SGP). Unlike classical pyoderma gangrenosum this variant is characterized by a benign course, superficial ulceration and a granulomatous infiltrate. Although our cases share the typical features of SGP. they are noteworthy in that one had the disease for 18 years, and the other had concomitant sarcoidosis.
