Antifungal therapy that included ketoconazole failed in a 44-year-old woman with pulmonary sporotrichosis progressing slowly over a seven-year period. On the basis of this case and the modest amount of experience reported in the literature, ketoconazole does not appear to be effective in the treatment of pulmonary sporotrichosis.
