Botryomycosis is a bacterial infection of either the skin alone or in combination with visceral organs. It resembles a deep fungal infection. A histologic evaluation of cutaneous lesions reveals the characteristic Splendore-Hoepple phenomena and assists with management. Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) tend to have uncharacteristic lesions resembling common conditions such as prurigo nodularis and lichen simplex chronicus. Diagnosis in these cases can be challenging. We report the case of a patient with AIDS who was successfully treated with Augmentin (amoxicillin, clavulanate potassium). Complete resolution of the lesion occurred after the causative agent, Staphylococcus aureus, was identified.
葡萄状菌病是一种仅累及皮肤或同时累及内脏器官的细菌感染。它类似于深部真菌感染。对皮肤病变进行组织学评估可发现特征性的斯普伦多雷-赫普尔现象,并有助于治疗。获得性免疫缺陷综合征(AIDS)患者往往有不典型病变,类似于结节性痒疹和慢性单纯性苔藓等常见病症。这些病例的诊断可能具有挑战性。我们报告了一例AIDS患者,用安美汀(阿莫西林克拉维酸钾)成功治疗。在确定病原体金黄色葡萄球菌后,病变完全消退。
