Abstract

This article discusses the treatment of peristomal granulomatosis, a complication that can occur in patients with stomas. The authors present two cases in which peristomal granulomatosis was successfully treated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) 1.0% cream. The use of H2O2 cream has been shown to have positive outcomes in other dermatological conditions, such as venous insufficiency ulcers and acne vulgaris. The authors suggest that H2O2 1.0% cream may be a safe and effective alternative treatment for peristomal granulomatosis, potentially avoiding the adverse effects associated with long-term use of topical corticosteroids.
