The pathogenesis of ecthyma gangrenosum [PDF]
Summary Eight patients with ecthyma gangrenosum were studied. In two the ecthyma gangrenosum was secondary to Pseudomonas bacteraemia, and two showed no evidence of bacteraemia. In two of the other four patients with Pseudomonas bacteraemia, the blood stream invasion was probably secondary to the skin lesions.
