Dermal alternariasis in a kidney transplant recipient

A Bourlond et al. Dermatologica. 1984.

Abstract

Dermal alternariasis represents one of the new infectious diseases related to immunodepression, especially in kidney recipients. Periodic acid-Schiff and Grocott stains of paraffin sections and mycological cultures must be resorted to in order to establish the diagnosis. Ketoconazole should be the best treatment.
