Abstract
Corticosteroids, even in topical application, may cause immunosuppression and Cushing's syndrome. A case of disseminated fatal cytomegalovirus infection is reported in a 3-month-old girl with Cushing's syndrome caused by exogenous topical clobetasol propionate application, which might have caused immunosuppression due to prolonged use.
