Pustulosis acuta generalisata is an uncommon condition characterized by scattered symmetrical eruption of sterile pustules associated with elevated inflammatory markers, leukocytosis, fever and arthropathy caused by previous infection by group A streptococci (GAS). We reported here a case of pustulosis acuta generalisata in an HIV-positive patient recently treated with chemotherapy for a seminoma. © The Author(s) 2013 Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav.
