Subcutaneous mycoses are common in subtropical and tropical regions of the world. They are rarely observed in Europe. These mycoses are heterogeneous, but all are caused by penetrating trauma of the skin. Most cases in Europe are observed in returning travelers, aid workers, archaeologists and immigrants. Therefore, a careful, thorough history is essential in order to reach a proper diagnosis. We provide up-to-date epidemiological, clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic data on the three most important imported subcutaneous mycoses in Europe: chromoblastomycosis, sporotrichosis and mycetoma.
皮下真菌病常见于世界的亚热带和热带地区,在欧洲很少见。这些真菌病多种多样,但均由皮肤穿透性外伤引起。在欧洲,大多数病例见于归国旅行者、援助工作者、考古学家和移民。因此,为了做出正确的诊断,仔细、全面的病史至关重要。我们提供了欧洲三种最重要的输入性皮下真菌病(着色芽生菌病、孢子丝菌病和真菌性足菌肿)的最新流行病学、临床、诊断和治疗数据。
