Patients undergoing chemotherapy regimens for hematologic malignancies are prone to develop unusual and potentially life-threatening infections during periods of leukopenia- induced immunosuppression. We report the case of a woman who received consolidation chemotherapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia and acquired necrotizing Pseudomonas aeruginosa blepharoconjunctivitis of the right eye during a period of mild leukopenia. The infection led to severe orbital and periorbital inflammation, spreading down to the neck. High-dose antibiotic treatment with ceftazidime and tobramycin combined with granulocyte cell-stimulating factor cleared the infection after several days, but plastic surgery was needed to restore normal eye closure.
