Résumé
Phaeohyphomycosis caused by Phialophora parasitica is rare and it has never been documented in Thailand. The first two Thai cases of phaeohyphomycosis caused by P. parasitica were recognized in early 1990 at Ramathibodi Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. Both patients had underlying diseases. The fungus developed in abscesses with pigmented mycelium at the lower extremity. Cultures from pus and tissue biopsies were positive for dematiaceous fungi. Light microscopic features suggested P. parasitica and which was illustrated by both scanning and transmission electron microscope. The first case was treated with itraconazole with a satisfactory initial response. The second case was successfully treated by surgical removal of the entire lesion.

Foram revistos os protocolos clínico-micológicos de 73 pacientes com cromoblastomicose vistos no interior do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A relaçäo entre pacientes homens e mulheres foi de 7:1. Lesöes precoces foram observadas em 8,2% dos pacientes. As lesöes localizavam-se nos membros superiores e face em 8,2 e 4,1% dos doentes, respectivamente. F. pedrosi foi o único agente da infecçäo isolada. Foi discutida a distribuiçäo geográfica peculiar que a micose apresente no Estado
