A 14-year-old girl with a granulomatous infection of the cheek caused by Scopulariopsis brevicaulis is described. Treatment successively consisted of itraconazole and/or terbinafine for 19 months, after which clinical and mycologic cure seemed to be obtained. However, a relapse occurred 10 months later.
