Clin Case Rep. 2021 Aug 16;9(8):e04259. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.4259. eCollection 2021 Aug.

Abstract

Cutaneous findings should be actively sought in suspected cases of sepsis, as some of them (such as ecthyma gangrenosum) may provide clues about the infectious agent involved and the patient's immunosuppression status.
