  • Title: Mycoplasma pneumoniae-associated mucositis complicated by herpes simplex virus dissemination and Staphylococcus Epidermidis bacteremia.
    Author: Agnihotri G, Loucks E, Ashack K, Tsoukas M.
    Journal: Pediatr Dermatol; 2020 Jul; 37(4):769-770. PubMed ID: 32500927.
    Abstract:
    Prominent mucositis with minimal or no cutaneous involvement in the setting of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection describes a clinical entity recently termed Mycoplasma-induced rash and mucositis (MIRM). About 81% of patients with MIRM experience complete resolution; however, the disease course in approximately 11% of patients is complicated by mucosal sequelae. We describe a patient with MIRM complicated by HSV dissemination and Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteremia and outline the management of mucocutaneous eruptions without systemic immunosuppressant agents.
