ABSTRACT
We present a clinical case detailing the presentation of erysipelas in a 52-year-old immunocompetent female, wherein the infection displayed an unusual localization encompassing the skin of the anterior abdominal area and breast. The patient exhibited a favorable response to medical treatment. It is paramount to underscore the significance of recognizing such cases, which demand a heightened level of clinical suspicion to facilitate swift diagnosis and effective management strategies.
