Severe dermatophyte infection is rare in immunocompetent adults. Recently cases have been described in travelers returning from South East Asia (Luchsinger et al., 2015) [1]. These may be sexually transmitted and can have permanent sequelae. We describe the first reported case of Majocchi's granuloma (MG) in an Australian returned traveler and its subsequent transmission via sexual contact. Both patients were successfully treated with systemic antifungals. MG should be considered in patients with severe rash after travel to South East Asia.
严重皮肤癣菌感染在免疫功能正常的成年人中较为罕见。最近,有从东南亚返回的旅行者中出现此类病例的报道(Luchsinger等人,2015年)[1]。这些感染可能通过性传播,并且会产生永久性后遗症。我们报告了首例在从澳大利亚返回的旅行者中出现的Majocchi肉芽肿(MG)病例及其随后通过性接触传播的情况。两名患者均通过全身性抗真菌药物成功治愈。对于前往东南亚旅行后出现严重皮疹的患者,应考虑到MG的可能性。
