  • Title: Successful sequential treatment with itraconazole and ALA-PDT for chromoblastomycosis because of Alternaria alternata.
    Author: Liu ZH, Xia XJ.
    Journal: Dermatol Ther; 2014; 27(6):357-60. PubMed ID: 25039437.
    Abstract:
    Alternaria alternata is a rare etiology of phaeohyphomycosis in immunocompromised patients, which has never been reported to cause chromoblastomycosis. As far as we know, this is the first chromoblastomycosis case successfully treated with a short course of systemic antifungals and subsequent 5-aminolevulinic acid-photodynamic therapy.
