Lewis1 states that sporotrichosis seldom remains localized to a single lesion. A perusal of the literature discloses that only two cases of solitary sporotrichotic lesions have been reported to date. Campbell,2 in 1933, described a sporotrichotic "chancre" of five months' duration, with no satellite lesions. Graham3 reported a second case of this type in 1941. Recently, I have observed a similar case, which I believe may be of interest for review. REPORT OF A CASE L.
