Abstract
|
|
|
Phaeohyphomycosis refers to subcutaneous and systemic fungal infections characterized by dematiacious septate mycerial elements in tissue.
We are discribing the first report of subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis by Drechslera dematioidea in a 9-year-old boy who presented a slow-growing 4×5.5cm erythematous plaque with somewhat verrucous and eczematous lesion on the dorsal aspect of his
right
foot after receiving a burn by boiling liquid at 2 years of age.
Biopsy of the lesion revealed granulomatous inflammation, brownish spores in chain and planate-deviding sclerotic bodies in the epidermis and upper dermis.
Findings by microscopic examination and consecutive cultures of scales and biopsy specimen were consistent with Drechslera dematioidea. The lesion was successfully treated with itraconazole. (Kor J Dermatol 1996;34(3) ; 489~494)
