Reports on the occurrence of sporotrichosis in some parts of north-east India are scarce. We report here five cases of lymphocutaneous sporotrichosis from north-east India, including one from Sikkim State and four from distant places in the north-eastern part of West Bengal. All patients were full or part-time farmers or gardeners. Diagnosis of sporotrichosis was confirmed by isolation of Sporothrix schenckii in culture and in vitro conversion of the isolates to yeast form. The cases were treated with 50% solution of potassium iodide.
关于印度东北部某些地区孢子丝菌病发病情况的报告很少。我们在此报告来自印度东北部的5例皮肤淋巴管型孢子丝菌病病例,其中1例来自锡金邦,4例来自西孟加拉邦东北部的偏远地区。所有患者均为全职或兼职农民或园丁。通过在培养物中分离申克孢子丝菌并将分离株在体外转化为酵母形式,确诊为孢子丝菌病。这些病例用50%碘化钾溶液进行治疗。
