Case report reveals gingival necrosis from sepsis-induced agranulocytosis in an otherwise medically healthy patient, highlighting progression after Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteraemia.
: There have been no reports of sepsis-induced agranulocytosis causing gingival necrosis in otherwise medically healthy patients to the authors' best knowledge. Even though there are several case reports of gingival necrosis secondary to medication-induced agranulocytosis, they have not systematically described the natural progression of agranulocytosis-related gingival necrosis.
