ABSTRACT
Majocchi’s granuloma or dermatophytic granuloma is a mycosis observed among immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients caused by dermatophytes, particularly Trichophyton rubrum, which may be responsible for 50% of cases. The mechanism by which it occurs is yet unknown although reports suggest it may occur after localized trauma that alters the hair follicle and enables the entrance of the microorganism. Diabetes and the use of topical steroids are among some of the predispEl cuadro 1 no está acotado. Favor de hacerloEl cuadro 1 no está acotado. Favor de hacerloosing factors. Majocchi’s granuloma has two clinical presentations, among immunocompetent patients it displays follicular papules and among immunocom-promised patients a subcutaneous nodular type is observed. Diagnosis is confirmed through histopathology, where granulomas and dermatophytes in the form of filaments or spores are observed in the mid and deep dermis. Treatment includes systemic antimycotics. We reviewed the etiopathogenic, clinical, hi stopathological and therapeutic aspects of Majocchi´s granuloma.
