Majocchi's granuloma is a folliculitis caused by dermatophytes, which is most commonly located on the skin of the lower limbs in women. A favorable factor for the infection is an injury caused by epilation, which, together with an existing fungal infection, can lead to the spread of folliculitis to other parts of the body. The disease is extremely rare (Burgdorf et al., 2010). The aim of this article is to describe the case of a patient who developed severe edematous lesions of the lower extremities from a mycosis infection with Trichophyton mentagrophytes varietas granulosum, the carrier of which was a domestic guinea pig.
马乔奇氏肉芽肿是一种由真菌引起的毛囊炎，最常见于女性下肢皮肤。感染的一个有利因素是拔毛引起的损伤，加上现有的真菌感染，可导致毛囊炎扩散到身体的其他部位。这种疾病极为罕见（Burgdorf 等人，2010 年）。本文的目的是描述一例患者，该患者因感染毛癣菌属变种颗粒引起严重的下肢水肿性病变，其载体是家养豚鼠。
