Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis that is caused by Sporothrix schenckii. Whereas the most common clinical presentation is the lymphocutaneous form, the fixed cutaneous form is not uncommon. Important clues from the clinical history, such as travel and occupation, can help to raise the suspicion of this infection in the differential diagnosis. However, histopathologic and tissue culture, which often require multiple specimens, are necessary to confirm the diagnosis. We present a patient with fixed cutaneous sporotrichosis whose delayed diagnosis led to appreciable scars and morbidity.
