RESUMO
Chronic sporotrichosis granuloma of the skin is usually the result of non compliance with oral iodine therapy for whatever reason. Excision of the lesion, local iodine application with povidone iodide for six days and delayed primary skin grafting is presented as a quick, effective and acceptable alternative, if oral treatment is not tolerated. The ineffectiveness of local excision and grafting without adequate iodine therapy is demonstrated by this case
