UNLABELLED
is a thermally dimorphic fungus found in soil and in plant matter. Cutaneous sporotrichosis is the most common manifestation and disseminated sporotrichosis is the rarest. Delayed diagnoses are not uncommon. We report a case of disseminated sporotrichosis involving the skin, bones and joints, with subsequent joint destruction, tissue loss and permanent disability.
CONTRIBUTION
This case report highlights the debilitating potential of sporotrichosis and its often elusive nature regarding diagnosis.
未标注
是一种在土壤和植物中发现的双相真菌。皮肤孢子丝菌病是最常见的表现形式,播散性孢子丝菌病最为罕见。延迟诊断并不少见。我们报告一例播散性孢子丝菌病,累及皮肤、骨骼和关节,随后出现关节破坏、组织缺失和永久性残疾。
贡献
本病例报告强调了孢子丝菌病的致残潜力及其在诊断方面常常难以捉摸的性质。
