Immunotherapy in oncology is replacing traditional therapies due to it specific action and limited side effects. Despite the high efficacy of immunotherapy, side effects such as bacterial infection have been reported. Bacterial skin and soft tissue infections represent one of the most important differential diagnoses in patients presenting with reddened and swollen skin and soft tissue. Among these infections, cellulitis (phlegmon) and abscesses are the most frequent. In most cases, these infections occur locally with possible contiguous spread, or as a multifocal manifestation, especially in immunocompromised patients. Herein, we report a case of pyodermitis in an immunocompromised district in a patient treated with nivolumab for non-small cell lung cancer. A 64-year-old, smoker male patient showed cutaneous lesions at a different evolution level in the left arm, all in a tattooed area, with one phlegmon and two ulcerated lesions. Microbiological cultures and gram staining revealed an infection caused by a methicillin-susceptible but erythromycin-resistant (ER-R), clindamycin-resistant (CL-R), and gentamicin-resistant (GE-R) Staphylococcus aureus strain. Despite immunotherapy becoming a milestone in oncologic treatment, more than the spectrum of immune-mediated toxicities of these agents needs to be investigated. This report highlights the importance of considering lifestyle and cutaneous background before starting immunotherapy for cancer treatment, with an emphasis on pharmacogenomics and the possibility of modified skin microbiota predisposing to cutaneous infections in patients treated with PD-1 inhibitors.
