ABSTRACT
Chromomycosis is a chronic mycosis of the skin and subcutaneous tissue characterized by a brown, thick-walled, round, nonbudding form of causative fungi in the tissue. We report a case of chromomycosis caused by Fonsecaea pedrosoi in a 56-year-old Korean woman who showed 3 x 4cm sized deep ulcerations on the dorsa of both hands. Histopathologically, chronic granulomatous inflammation and sclerotic cells were observed. Fonsecaea pedrosoi was grown into typical black colonies in fungus culture. She was treated with pedicle flap graft followed by oral itraconazole, and showed clinical improvement.
