A 51-year-old man with 3-month unhealing cat bite wound was diagnosed with sporotrichosis, a subacute-to-chronic infection caused by the worldwide endemic, dimorphic fungus Sporothrix globosa. The case would help clinicians to raise awareness of human sporotrichosis due to cat bites, which remains rare and is likely to be underrecognized and misdiagnosed.
一位 51 岁男性,3 个月前被猫咬伤后伤口一直未愈合,被诊断为孢子丝菌病,这是一种由全球流行的二相性真菌申克孢子丝菌引起的亚急性至慢性感染。该病例有助于提高临床医生对猫咬伤导致的人类孢子丝菌病的认识,该病仍然较为罕见,很可能被低估和误诊。
