Abstract
Abstract Pseudomonas aeruginosa septicemia is rare in healthy infants and children. Ecthyma gangrenosum is a known cutaneous manifestation of Pseudomonas septicemia. Delay in recognition and treatment can lead to an unfavourable outcome. We report a case of Pseudomonas sepsis in a previously healthy four month infant with Ecthyma gangrenosum emphasizing the clinical and therapeutic aspects of this condition. No underlying predisposing cause was found in our patient.
