ABSTRACT

Chromomycosis is a chronic progressive subcutaneous mycosis that predominates in men between fourth and seventh decade. It affects particularly rural workers, so it is considered an occupational disease. In this article we report the case of a 64 year-old male patient, who was treated with combination therapy with complete remission of his dermatosis.
