Abstract
Adiaspiromycosis is known as an infection that is due to Chrysosporium species which are filamentous soil
saprophytes that cause pulmonary infection in rare cases but are classified mainly as a contaminant rather than a
pathogen in dermatological areas. Deep fungal infections, commonly by Aspergillosis and Candida, are associated
with patients who have an impaired skin barrier or immunosuppression and it takes a long time to identify the
pathogen because it is hard to diagnosis it without clinical suspicion. In our case, a 56-year-old female living in a
rural area who took immunosuppressants including cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mefetil, and prednisolone due
to pemphigus vulgaris presented at our clinic with an erythematous patch with pustular discharges on the left
forearm for 2 months. She had been treated with antibiotics under the impression of cellulitis but was not responsive
to it. A Chrysosporium species was identified by tissue culture and treatment was successful with an antifungal
agent. We here report a case of deep fungal infection caused by Chrysosporium species without pulmonary
infiltration which is a rare manifestation.
