Subcutaneous nodules in Pseudomonas sepsis.

Approximately 60 nontender, nonfluctuant, red, hot subcutaneous nodules developed on the trunk, extremities, and face due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa septicemia in a 56-year-old woman with stage III ovarian adenocarcinoma. Two years later, these lesions appeared atrophic with central scarring. Complete eradication with systemic antibiotics and without incision and drainage was accomplished.
