A 73-year-old female had a flat nodule with erosion 10mm in diameter on the dorsum of the third finger. Fonsecaea pedrosoi was isolated from the lesion. She was treated with oral terbinafine (125mg/day) for 5 months and then with oral fluconazole (200mg/day). We also instructed her to use topical heat therapy, but she was not compliant. Although the lesion seemed to shrink somewhat with these therapies, it deteriorated when treatment stopped. She then began intensive topical heat therapy in addition to oral fluconazole (200mg/day). The lesion dramatically improved 2 weeks after she began to cover her third finger with a pocket warmer at least 18 hours a day. Two months later the chromomycosis had been healed. We believe that heat therapy itself is a very satisfactory therapeutic modality for chromomycosis. We would like to stress that the patient must be informed about the importance of prolonged treatment at a high temperature if this modality is used.
