Chromoblastomycosis
Journal Title: National Journal of Integrated Research in Medicine - Year 2010, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
Chromoblastomycosis is a chronic fungal infection primarily of skin and subcutaneous tissue caused by a variety of dematiaceous fungal species belonging to different genera. We report a case which remains undiagnosed for 15 years although it presented with the most common manifestation. It was diagnosed and treated with excellent clinico-microbiological and histo-pathological correlation.
