Abstract
Dermatophilus congolensis dermatitis is a self-limited zoonotic disease whose clinical presentation may include a wide variety of aspecific tissue lesions with high potential of misdiagnosis. Contact with animals should be investigated particularly in travellers, and cultures should be made to confirm it. To our knowledge, this is the first case reported in Switzerland.
