Primary Cutaneous Aspergillosis: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2015
Abstract
Primary cutaneous aspergillosis is an uncommon entity that may occur in immunosuppressed hosts, usually resulting from contact with contaminated medical devices used in patient care. The infection spreads locally with subsequent skin necrosis due to angioinvasion and thrombosis. We report primary cutaneous aspergillosis following contact with contaminated gauze, and we review the relevant literature.
