Abstract
ABSTRACT
Fusariosis is a hyalohyphomycosis due to
Fusarium
species that mainly occurs in immunocompromised hosts. The clinical spectrum of
Fusarium
infection comprises localized and disseminated forms. A case of localized cutaneous fusariosis caused by
Fusarium solani
in a renal transplant patient is described, and the skin manifestations of the disease are discussed.
