Disseminated Candida tropicalis presenting with Ecthyma-Gangrenosum-like Lesions

Abstract

Disseminated candidiasis in immunosuppressed patients has been classically associated with an erythematous papular eruption, however more severe presentations are possible. We present a patient who developed disseminated Candida tropicalis that presented with hemorrhagic bullae that progressed to large necrotic ulcers.
