Cutaneous infarction. Manifestation of disseminated mucormycosis.

B S Kramer, A D Hernandez, R L Reddick, A S Levine.   

Abstract

We describe the second reported case of cutaneous infarction as a manifestation of disseminated mucormycosis. The lesion, which closely resembled ecthyma gangrenosum, occurred in a leukemic patient who was on a regimen of broad-spectrum antibiotics. In this case as in the only other reported case, Mucor pusillus was the cause.
