ABSTRACT
Ecthyma Gangrenosum is a rapidly progressing skin infection charact,erized by edema, hemorragic bullae and necrosis. Ecthyma Gangrenosum occurs almost exclusively in severely imrnunocompromised patients during the course of pseudomanas aeruginosa septisemia. A 5 month-old boy was transferred to our department because of multiple well defined central necrotic black-colored large erythematous bullae. In the bacterial cultures of skin, stool and liver aspiration fluid, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was grown. In the abdominal ultrasonogram and computed tomogram, the multiple liver abscess, hepatomegaly and ascites were shown on both hepatic lobes. Herein we report a case of ecthyma gangrenosum associated with liver abscess.
