Dermatophilus congolensis, which affects animal species, is an uncommon human infection. Few cases, mainly in tropical areas, have been reported. We describe the first human infection in Spain in a traveler returning from Central America. Diagnosis of human infection may be underestimated in people in contact with animals.
刚果嗜皮菌会影响动物物种,是一种罕见的人类感染。在热带地区,有少数病例报告。我们描述了首例在从中美洲返回的旅行者中发生的西班牙人类感染。与动物接触的人群中,人类感染的诊断可能被低估。
