초록
Primary cutaneous cryptococcosis is isolated cutaneous cryptococcosis without evidence of systemicinvolvement. It usually presents as a solitary nodule in an exposed area, such as head and neck orextremities, and the occurrence of primary cutaneous cryptococcosis in the covered area has been rarelyreported in the literature. A healthy 81-year-old immunocompetent woman presented with a solitaryreddish scaly plaque on her abdomen without clinical evidence of systemic cryptococcal infection. Histopathologic examination showed numerous encapsulated spores, and the organism was identified asCryptococcus neoformans in a series of fungal studies. We diagnosed this case as a primary cutaneouscryptococcosis by the findings mentioned above. The patient was successfully treated with surgicalexcision and oral fluconazole without any side effects.
