Patricia Chang, Mónica Vanesa Vásquez Acajabón, Heidi Logemann, Gylari Calderón Pacheco

The sporotrichosis is the most common sub cutaneous mycosis in our country and the lymphocutaneous type is the most frequent clinical presentation. A case of cutaneous fixed sporotrichosis has been reported in a woman of 46 years old with good response to itraconazole. The fixed cutaneous type is less well recognized. In this type, the lesions are restricted to the site of inoculation without any lymphatic spread. Important clues from the clinical history, such as travel and occupation, can help to raise the suspicion of this infection in the differential diagnosis. tissue culture are necessary to confirm the mycological diagnosis.

Brown macule on the sole – What’s your diagnosis?

Catarina Soares Queirós, Miguel Duarte Reis, Paulo Leal Filipe

Acral lentiginous melanoma represents only 2-8% of melanomas in whites but is the most common type of melanoma among dark-skinned people, representing 35-60% of melanomas in this population. This type of melanoma usually appears on the palms and soles, usually as flat, tan or brown macules with irregular borders. In dark-skinned patients, the preferential location of melanoma on the palms and soles may be related to a different pattern of melanossome distribution among keratinocytes in the skin of these regions. Due to the delay in diagnosis and frequent advanced state at presentation, acral lentiginous melanoma tends to have a poor prognosis.
