A Case of Chromonycosis
Abstract
- We report a 55-year-old male, who has had erythematous, scaly, verrucous plaque on the left lower leg. About 1 year ago, rice sized erythematous papule on the left lower leg was developed. The lesion had been aggravated abruptly and rapidly in size since about one month ago. Histopathologic finding showed clusters of fungal spores in the upper dermis and intraepidermal microabscesses. The patient had been treated with wide excision and intravenous injection of amphotericin B. We observed a good response without evidence of recurrence.
