Abstract

Disseminated candidiasis in immunosuppressed patients has been classically associated with an erythematous papular eruption [1, 2, 3], 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.
