  • Title: Pyoderma pathophysiology and management.
    Author: Leyden JJ.
    Journal: Arch Dermatol; 1988 May; 124(5):753-5. PubMed ID: 3129996.
    Abstract:
    Cutaneous infections with Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are major complications of epidermolysis bullosa. Application of impermeable occlusive dressings over denuded skin colonized with these bacteria results in rapid multiplication and the hazard of severe pyoderma. Approaches to the prophylactic treatment of these infections during the long-term management of epidermolysis bullosa are considered.
