520 | |a <p style="text-align: justify;">Aspergillus is an all-pervasive mold with the potential to cause severe invasive infections in the immunocompromised. A rare cutaneous manifestation of Aspergillus infection, primary cutaneous aspergillosis (PCA), occurs in just 1-5% of invasive aspergillosis cases.

We present a unique case of an immunocompetent individual diagnosed with PCA two weeks after trauma and subsequent surgery.</p> | ||
