A Case Report of Widespread Majocchi's Granuloma in a Patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Mycopathologia 2017 June
Majocchi's granuloma is an intracutaneous or subcutaneous granulomatous inflammation caused by invasion of dermatophytic fungus, especially Trichophyton rubrum. This type of lesion is misdiagnosed frequently without proper auxiliary examination. Here, we report a case of widespread Majocchi's granuloma caused by T. rubrum in a 35-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus for 9 years. The patient was initially misdiagnosed as SLE-associated skin lesions, which delayed her treatment and resulted in severe multiple disseminated lesions. After confirmed as Majocchi's granuloma, the patient was cured after 11-month treatment with terbinafine.
