abstract={Ecthyma gangrenosum (EG) is a well-recognized but rare skin infection most commonly occurring in the setting of immunocompromised individuals with bacteremia. Currently, there are very few reports of EG caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and even fewer cases caused by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA). We present only the second case of bacteremic EG associated with MSSA bacteremia and aim to review the literature as well as examine common findings amongst patients with EG associated with Staphylococcus aureus.},
