Dermatophytic pseudomycetoma is a subcutaneous fungal infection by Microsporum canis.
This work describes a case of dermatophytic pseudomycetoma in a Persian cat.
A 3-year old female Persian cat showing alopecia, scaling and ulcerated nodules throughout the body, with presence of ulcerated nodules with yellow granular discharges on the dorsum, close to the tail. Mycological and histopathological examinations were realized.
Diagnosis of dermatophytic pseudomycetoma was established. The cat was treated with griseofulvin, and surgical excision was carried out. Response to therapy was effective during the first months, during which a reduction in nodule frequency was observed. However, despite maintaining the therapy levels, the lesions relapsed and progressed to the point of causing the animal's death.
The clinic evolution showed the progressive and recurrent character of dermatophytic pseudomycetoma.

本文描述了一只波斯猫患皮肤癣菌性假真菌瘤的病例。
一只3岁雌性波斯猫全身出现脱毛、脱屑和溃疡结节，背部靠近尾巴处有带有黄色颗粒状分泌物的溃疡结节。进行了真菌学和组织病理学检查。
确诊为皮肤癣菌性假真菌瘤。该猫接受了灰黄霉素治疗，并进行了手术切除。最初几个月治疗反应有效，在此期间观察到结节频率降低。然而，尽管维持治疗水平，病变仍复发并进展至导致动物死亡。
临床病程显示皮肤癣菌性假真菌瘤具有进行性和复发性特征。
