An Unusual Case of White Piedra Due to Trichosporon inkin Mimicking Trichobacteriosis.
Mycopathologia 2016 December
White piedra is a superficial mycosis characterized by soft, white-to-tan, irregular nodules attached to the hair shafts. A 36-year-old man presented with small lumps in his pubic hair, without any other symptoms. The clinical features were suggestive of trichobacteriosis. Pathology analysis of the infected hair revealed that the concretions surrounding the hair shaft were full of fungal elements, parts of which had invaded into the cuticle. Culture on Sabouraud dextrose agar grew creamy, yellow-white colonies identified as Trichosporon inkin by the sequence of the nuclear ribosomal intergenic spacer region. The condition was treated by shaving the pubic hair and administering antifungal therapy (oral itraconazole and topical ketoconazole).
