SPOROTRICHOSIS

Abstract
Five cases of cutaneous sporotrichosis were seen at the Stanford University Department of Dermatology from 1966 to 1977, where the disease was previously unreported. The possibility of sporotrichosis should be considered when suppurative cutaneous lesions do not respond to antibacterial agents. Skin biopsy of sporotrichotic lesion is often nonspecific, while culture is the best method of diagnosis.
