A 42-year-old farmer had been suffering from liver cirrhosis for about 3 years. He had episodes of melena and hematernesis for 2 days prior to coming to the emergency room but had no skin lesions. On the 2nd hospital day, painful, erythematous and edematous skin lesions developed on his left arm and on the 3rd hospital day, several purpuras and hemorrhagic bullae developed on his left arm and leg. In the tissue, blood and blister fluid, numerous gram negative rods were identified by direct smear and culture. The bacterial identification studies from blood and blister fluid revealed A. hydrephda.
