pxx258. Allergy to sulfamides? Septicemia? Probably both! The patient was admitted
to our ward after having received treatment for toxo with sulfadiazin+daraprim
in hospital. Severe haemorrhage, purpura(2), confusion, high temperature, bad
odor of the whole body... The purpura was so severe that some petechias had
volume!(see upper and next photos) On several places of his body one could observe
what looked like vascular hernias ("pockets of dirthy blood" on his
lips and on the border of former infected herpes wounds). One can suppose that
other internal organs were also affected because he also had maelena(1) and
multifocal neuro signs.
Without sulfa and with the ampiciline + gentamycine, the hemorrhagic problem
stopped (no more maelena nor petechias nor confusion...). One week after admission,
the patient died due to a deteriorating general condition. See other photos
of carrousel and "6-Allergy" and 16-hemoragy .
