Escherichia coli Bacteremia-induced Purpura Fulminans: A Case Report.

Mohamed Ahmed1, Michael Samotowka2, Saba Habis3, Ahmed Mahmoud1, Rasha Saeed4.   

Abstract

Purpura fulminans (PF) is a dermatologic manifestation of an underlying life-threatening condition associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation and skin necrosis. The known categories include protein C deficiency or abnormalities of other coagulation systems (inherited or acquired), acute infectious PF and idiopathic. We describe a case of PF induced by Escherichia coli-associated bacteremia.
