ABSTRACT
Botryomycosis is a bacterial infection and
Staphylococcus aureus is
its most common etiological agent. It can involve cutaneous or
internal organs with nodules, abscesses or fistulae, with a chronic,
recurring course and a typical poor response to treatment
even with prolonged antibiotic courses. We report 2 cases caused
by
S. aureus in a 38 year-old female and in a 13 year-old boy;
both with excellent response to treatment.
