Abstract
Unusual ulcerated masses protruding from both nostrils of a 3-year-old terrier were diagnosed histologically as sporotrichosis, and regressed with iodide therapy. Cryptococcus neoformans was recovered from new lesions that appeared near the dog's eye and on the extremities. All lesions regressed with itraconazole therapy.
