• Resumen

  • Bullous skin lesions with eccrine gland necrosis have been repeatedly described in drug-induced coma, while similar cutaneosus changes in patients with non-druginduced coma have only rarely been reported. We present one comatose patients with bullous skin lesión and eccrine gland necrosis on the dependent part of the body. These findings suggest that the hyperthermia, coupled with hypoxia and local pressure could cause sweat gland fatigue and degeneration.
