A Case of Chromoblastomycosis Caused by Fonsecaea pedrosoi Successfully Treated by Oral Itraconazole Together with Terbinafine
Abstract Patients with chromoblastomycosis (CBM) usually have a history of local skin damage related to outdoor activities, mainly manifested as chronic refractory proliferative pathologic changes. We report a case of a 56-year-old man with CBM, identified as Fonsecaea pedrosoi infection by fungal c...
