ABSTRACT

Chromomycosis is a subcutaneous or deep mycosis of chronic course, caused by a group of fungi; it is characterized by the formation of coetaneous verrucous nodules, commonly located in lower limbs, of chronic evolution and total difficult cure. A 34- year-old patient that 5 years ago presented plaques (three-four) of lineal form, papulo verrucous in dorsum of the left arm, mycosis exam was indicated, and the diagnosis of Fonsecaea pedrosoi was confirmed, treatment with fluconazol was given that was interrupted due to transaminase increase, thus cryotherapy was given and later surgical treatment.
