CHROMOBLASTOMYCOSIS: A REPORT OF 2 CASES WITH LITERATURE REVIEW
Keyword(s):
Chromoblastomycosis is primarily a cutaneous mycosis caused by demetiaceous fungi. Microscopic examination with findings of muriform bodies are pathognomonic for the diagnosis of Chromoblastomycosis and if not specifically looked for, there is a chance of missing the diagnosis leading to improper treatment and complications. Here we report 2 cases, one of a middle aged woman, the other of an elderly man presenting with lower limb skin lesions histopathologically diagnosed as chromoblastomycosis.
