Sporotrichosis is the most prevalent subcutaneous mycosis and is characterized by a subacute or chronic development of a cutaneous or subcutaneous nodular lesion. It is caused by the dimorphic fungus Sporothrix spp, which may manifest in different clinical forms. The disseminated cutaneous form is uncommon and is more likely to occur in immunocompromised patients. We report a 47-year-old male patient with multiple cutaneous and subcutaneous nodules. The patient was diagnosed with disseminated cutaneous sporotrichosis based on the isolation and identification of Sporothrix spp. The patient was treated with potassium iodide, which resulted in clinical improvement of the lesions.
孢子丝菌病是最常见的皮下真菌病，其特征为皮肤或皮下结节性病变呈亚急性或慢性发展。它由双相真菌申克孢子丝菌属引起，可表现为不同的临床形式。播散性皮肤型较为罕见，更易发生于免疫功能低下的患者。我们报告一例47岁男性患者，有多个皮肤和皮下结节。根据申克孢子丝菌属的分离和鉴定，该患者被诊断为播散性皮肤孢子丝菌病。患者接受碘化钾治疗，病变得到临床改善。
