A Canadian soldier incurred a nonhealing traumatic skin ulcer while on duty in Somalia. The diagnosis of localized cutaneous diphtheria was confirmed by isolation of a toxigenic strain ofCorynebacterium diphtheriaefrom the ulcer. The patient was placed in isolation and treated with erythromycin and penicillin for 10 days without antitoxin. He was released when two consecutive daily cultures were negative. Public health officials evaluated his wife, two children and close contacts for carriage, but no carriers or secondary cases were identified. Cutaneous diphtheria as a diagnostic and management patient problem and potential public health problem are discussed.
