論文の詳細を見る
Three cases of Sporotrichosis were reported and 178 cases reported in Japan were briefly reviewed.<BR>In case 1, a man aged 19, tender nodules of pea-size were noticed on the extensor aspect of left forearm and left upper arm 2 weeks after injury on the left index-finger. While culture for Sporotrichum schenckii was negative, the asteroid tissue form (asteroid body) and isolated spores were histologically demonstrated. The lesions healed with oral administration of potassium iodide in 4 months.<BR>In case 2, a girl aged 7, granulomatous nodule had developed on the left lower eyelid following cat scratch. S. schenckii was cultured from the lesion. The isolated spores were histo-logically demonstrated. The lesion improved rapidly with oral administration of potassium iodide in 20 days.<BR>In case 3, a boy aged 4, recurrent ulcer had developed on the left frontal region following traumas. S. schenckii was positive on the culture.
