Cutaneous Fungal Masses From Prior Environmental Injury Following Kidney Transplant: A Case Report

Abstract

Fungus account for ∼ 5% of all cases infections following solid organ transplant. Fungal infections in the setting of immunosuppression may progress rapidly and present in an atypical pattern. Herein we describe 4 cases of environmental fungal infections acquired decades prior to transplant that developed into localized atypical cutaneous masses following kidney transplant.
