A case of fulminant ecthyma gangrenosum associated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in a patient with methylmalonic acidemia

Abstract

A 6-month-old boy with methylmalonic acidemia died of ecthyma gangrenosum caused by systemic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Subtle malnutrition accompanied by the occasional protein restriction treatment may have underlain the development of serious infection in this case.
