Protothecosis is a rare disease caused by achlorophilic algae of the genus Prototheca spp. In general, three clinical forms are observed: cutaneous, articular and systemic. The cutaneous form is the most common one. This study describes a patient with isolated erythematous papules and erythematous papular plaques in the scapular regions, with a previous histopathological diagnosis of cryptococcosis. New tests were conclusive for the diagnosis of protothecosis, caused by Prototheca wickerhamii.
原壁菌病是由原壁菌属的嗜氯性藻类引起的罕见疾病。一般来说，可观察到三种临床形式：皮肤型、关节型和全身型。皮肤型最为常见。本研究描述了一位肩胛区孤立性红斑丘疹和红斑斑块的患者，此前的组织病理学诊断为隐球菌病。新的检测结果明确诊断为由成团发菌引起的原壁菌病。
