ABSTRACT
A 53-year-old woman presented with asymptomatic pedunculated mass on her buttock. She was attacked by the tick while climbing the Jungbyung mountain located in Changwon City, the southern coastal area of the Korean Peninsula. It was identified as male Amblyomma testudinarium according to its morphological characteristics. Histological examination showed dense inflammatory infiltration of neutrophils and eosinophils, and dilated vessels on the dermis beneath the biting site of the tick. There have been only few reports of the tick bite by A. testudinarium in the Korean literature. To the best of our knowledge, our patient is the second case of tick bite from this species and the first tick bite from the male tick recorded in Korea. Here, we report a case of tick bite by male A. testudinarium in a woman, including a review of relevant literature.
