Kromoblastomikozis, Olgu Sunumu

Kromoblastomikozis, Dematiaceae familyasından mantarların sebep olduğu, genellikle tropik bölgelerde görülen kronik bir mantar enfeksiyonudur. Yetmiş beş yaşında erkek hastanın ayak sırtında bir buçuk aydır olan, ağrısız nodülden alınan biyopsi, histolojik ve konvansiyonel histokimyasal inceleme sonucunda kromoblastomikozis olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Olgu, beklenenin aksine sessiz bir kliniğe sahip olması ve nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunulmuştur

This case is presented because of its rarity and the silent clinical presentation of the condition
