ABSTRACT

La tiña negra es una micosis cutánea superficial causada por un hongo levaduriforme denominado Hortaea werneckii, es frecuente en regiones cálidas y en zonas de playa. Se comunica su aislamiento de la palma de la mano de un niño sin antecedentes de contacto con fuente infecciosa ni de hiperhidrosis que fue tratado con pomada de Whitfield con azufre desapareciendo la lesión al mes sin recidivas. Se considera significativo presentar este caso dada la escasa frecuencia de su diagnóstico.


Tinea nigra is a superficial cutaneous mycosis, caused by the yeasty-form fungus called Hortaea werneckii. It is frequent in warm regions and in beach zones. Its isolation in the hand palm of a boy without antecedents of infectious contact or hyperhidrosis is reported in this article. He was treated with an ointment of benzoic acid, salicylic acid and sulfur; lesions disappeared after a month without recurrence. The presentation of the case was considered significant due to the scarce frequency of this diagnose.
