Fulguration, also called electrofulguration, is the destruction of tissue by means of a high-frequency electric current applied with a needlelike electrode. In fulguration, the electrode is held away from the skin to produce a sparking at the skin surface and more shallow tissue destruction Fulguration is especially useful in treating superficial epidermal lesions, such as a superficial basal cell carcinoma of the trunk.
