摘要：

Ecthyma gangrenosum (EG) is an uncommon skin lesion that usually develops in patients with known immune deficiency or who are on immunosuppressive treatment. We report on five previously healthy children presenting with EG. Three of them developed severe neutropaenia. Immunologic work-up revealed chronic neutropaenia in two. ConclusionRecognition of EG is essential for providing early appropriate empiric antibiotic treatment. An immunologic work-up should be done, although a concomitant viral infection can be the predisposing factor.
