  • Title: Cutaneous alternariosis in an adolescent patient.
    Author: Matson DR, Eudy JD, Matson SC.
    Journal: Pediatr Dermatol; 2010; 27(1):98-100. PubMed ID: 20199426.
    Abstract:
    Cutaneous alternariosis is a rare infection typically observed only in immunocompromised adults, but we report here that the infection can occur in apparently healthy adolescents. We saw a clinically healthy adolescent boy who presented with cutaneous alternariosis 6 weeks after suffering a laceration to his right ankle. Treatment with itraconazole resulted in significant improvement after 1 month.
