Abstract

We describe a 6-year-old boy with a granulomatous lesion on the upper aspect of his left arm. Fusarium solani infection was confirmed by biopsy studies and cultures. The biopsy specimen showed an unusually extensive dermal invasion with fungal hyphae. This is an uncommon clinical presentation for deep cutaneous infection caused by F solani in a healthy child. Local heat therapy with a chemical pocket warmer led to dramatic healing of the lesion.

摘要

我们描述了一名6岁男孩，其左臂上部有一个肉芽肿性病变。活检研究和培养证实为茄病镰刀菌感染。活检标本显示真菌菌丝对真皮的侵袭异常广泛。这是健康儿童中由茄病镰刀菌引起的深部皮肤感染的一种罕见临床表现。使用化学热敷袋进行局部热疗使病变显著愈合。
