Cutaneous melioidosis.

Abstract:

:Melioidosis is a rare tropical disease caused by infection with the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. It occurs predominantly in south-east Asia, northern and central Australia and central and south America. Patients often present to the internal medicine physicians with a severe, potentially fatal sepsis. We report three patients who presented to our dermatology department with cutaneous melioidosis.
