Chromomycosis: a clinical and mycologic study of thirty-five cases observed in the hinterland of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Abstract
Data on thirty-five patients with chromomycosis seen in the hinterland of the State of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) are reviewed. Atypical lesions were found in 28.5% of the patients. The lesions were localized on the upper limbs and face in 14.2% and 8.5% of the patients, respectively. The clinical aspects and mycologic diagnosis of chromomycosis are discussed, and an account is given of its regional distribution in Rio Grande do Sul.
