RESUMO
We report a case of rapidly progressive necrotizing skin and soft-tissue infection caused by Bacillus cereus in an extremely low for gestational age infant. This case reminds clinicians to consider this opportunistic pathogen as the etiologic agent in fulminant necrotizing infections in vulnerable hosts, and to institute appropriate therapy in a timely fashion.
