Abstract
|
|
|
We experienced 3 cases of sporotrichosis confined to the face. They were lymphatic type, pustular type and fixed ulcerative type of cutaneous sporotrichosis respectively.
Two types of them except the lymphatic type were very difficult to be diagnosed correctly with clinical features.
So, we reviewed the types of sporotrichosi and the problems in establishing the diagnosis.
3 cases are as follows:
Case I A 57 years old female second hand dealer had a ulceration measuring 2-2cm in diameter on the right dorsum of the nose after injuring with sharp rusty iron material.
Soon after ulceration healed, 5 beaded nodules measuring 0.5-1cm in diameter newly developed on the right side of the maxillary area.
Case Ⅱ . A 55 years old female house wife had a suppurated ulcer with serous exudate, which looked like impetigenous lesions, on the left mandibular area, without any apparent trauma history.
Case Ⅲ. A 52 years old female had a rice grain sized papule, which was grown slowly in size, on the left maxillary area without any apparent trauma history.
Skin graft was performed after excision of the nodule, because it was diagnosed as skin cancer at a local clinic.
A large ulceration with necrosis of the tissues developed on the very site of skin graft performed, accompanied by a bean sized nodule below the ulceration.
