The infection usually follows trauma, such as a puncture from a splinter of wood and tends to affect exposed sites such as the feet and ankles. Chromoblastomycosis manifests initially as a warty papule which slowly enlarges to form a hypertrophic, warty plaque. Eventually, after months or many years, large hyperkeratotic masses may form, sometimes with secondary ulceration.

Radiographically these are usually focal alveolar infiltrates. Infection may be associated with the development of a rash, particularly erythema nodosum and erythema multiforme. Occasionally, there may be symmetric arthralgias or arthritis. Peripheral blood eosinophilia is not uncommon. Acute primary pulmonary coccidioidomycosis, particularly when associated with erythema nodosum and/or erythema multiforme, is frequently called “Valley fever.” When associated with arthralgias or arthritis, it has been termed “desert rheumatism.”

1F25.10 Disseminated coccidioidomycosis

Definition of Disseminated coccidioidomycosis: Diffuse pulmonary coccidioidomycosis occurs either when there is inhalation of a massive number of arthroconia, such as may occur during archeological excavations, or among individuals with severely depressed cellular immunity (e.g., late HIV-1 infection [AIDS]; cancer chemotherapy; allogeneic transplant recipients, treatment with corticosteroids; and during the second, third trimesters and postpartum pregnancy). The radiographic appearance often is a mixture of small nodules and interstitial findings, sometimes called “reticulonodular” or, because of it may resemble overwhelming pulmonary tuberculosis, “miliary.”

1F25.11 Primary cutaneous coccidioidomycosis

Definition of Primary cutaneous coccidioidomycosis: Coccidioidomycosis may rarely result from direct inoculation, usually through a puncture of the skin by a thorn or other vegetative structure. The infection generally remains confined to this area with local lymphangitic spread and is not considered indicative of disseminated disease. Coccidioidal serology tests may be positive.

1F25.12 Coccidioides meningitis

Definition of Coccidioides meningitis: An uncommon but often lethal form of coccidioidomycosis due to dissemination of Coccidioides fungi from the primary site of infection, principally the lungs, to the central nervous system.

Conidobolomycosis

Definition of Conidobolomycosis: Conidobolomycosis is a subcutaneous infection involving nasal mucosa and paranasal sinuses, leading to formation of firm, subcutaneous nodules or polyps. The infection may be acquired via inhalation of spores or a minor trauma such as an insect bite. The infected host is frequently an otherwise healthy individual working outdoors in tropical areas. Conidiobolomycosis can, however, cause major facial disfigurement. In individuals with impaired immune responses more invasive and potentially fatal infections may occur: such infections are not usually associated with skin lesions.

Dermatophytosis

Definition of Dermatophytosis: Dermatophytosis (tinea, ringworm) is a superficial infection of the skin, hair or nails by dermatophyte fungi of the genera Trichophyton, Epidermophyton or Microsporum. These fungi normally invade only the outer keratinous layer of the epidermis (stratum corneum), the hair shaft and the nail. They count amongst the commonest infections in man. Some species (e.g. Trichophyton rubrum) are essentially anthropophilic and infect only man whereas others are zoophilic (e.g. Trichophyton verrucosum) but may cause human infection from contact with infected animals.

Dermatophyte infection of the toe clefts commonly co-exists.

Inclusions:

1F2A.1 Histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma duboisii

Definition of Histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma duboisii: This form of histoplasmosis is endemic to Sub-Saharan Africa and is generally less virulent than histoplasmosis due to H. capsulatum, the classical form which occurs predominantly in tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas but is also seen in Africa and Asia. Otherwise known as African histoplasmosis, histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma duboisii usually involves the skin and subcutaneous tissue, lymph nodes and bones and rarely the lungs and other internal organs.

1F2D.1 Malassezia folliculitis

Definition of Malassezia folliculitis: Malassezia folliculitis is caused by the invasion of the hair follicle by Malassezia yeasts. Although Malassezia yeasts are a part of the normal human microflora, under certain conditions they can cause superficial dermatological conditions. The invasion results in the development of erythematous papules, and sometimes pustules, which may be either asymptomatic or itchy.
