Resumo

Introduction: Lobomycosis is one of the most rarely reported fungal infections worldwide. Most reported cases of lobomycosis is endemic in Central and South America, especially around Amazon.  The affected body areas usually the ears, lower extremities, upper extremities, face, chest, and back. Objective: to present the course of lobomycosis post long-term corticosteroid therapy. Methodology: Descriptive study of the case report type, whose data were obtained from the patient's medical record. Case presentation: This paper reports a 23-year-old woman, who suffered wounds which almost covered almost all of her body surface without any fever. On physical examination, multiple ulcers were found with maceration of the wound edges and multiple reddish bumps in the anterior and posterior trunk regions. There is no appearance of keloids. The patient had a history of pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus vegetans and was receiving long-term corticosteroid therapy. The microbiological examination did not reveal any fungal growth. Histopathological examination of the tissue with Hematoxylin-Eosin and Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) staining confirmed diagnosis of lobomycosis. Conclusion: Based on clinical and laboratory findings, the patient was diagnosed with Lobomycosis.
