    Abstract

    We communicate a case of pressure sore (decubitus ulcer) treated with 20% topic benzoyl peroxide in O/W emulsion with very satisfactory results. This substance feeds hyperbaric oxygen. Benzoyl peroxide also has antimicrobial, antipruriginous and antifungal properties all of them contributing to shorten the evolution of the lesions.
