ABSTRACT
A 13 year old male farmer suffered from cutaneous and nail phaeohyphomycosis for five years is reported in this paper. The lesions were dull red, nodules and well defined plaques with ulcerations, mainly on the face, extremities, palmar and plantar surfaces and buttocks. Some of them were covered with thick greyish black crusts. General examination did not reveal abnormal findings except the skin lesions. Histopathology showed granulomatous response with numerous light brown septate branching hyphae. The colonies were greyish brown on SDA and PDA at 25℃ and 37℃ with brownish black ascomata. The ioslated strain was identified as Chaetomium globosum based on the morphological features of ascomata, ascomal hairs and ascospores.
