Abstrakt: This article presents a case study of a 46-year-old man, born in Curasao,who was referred by the department of orthopaedic surgery because of the presence of tumours on his left foot. The patient had visited the mainland of Central and South America on several occasions. He could not recall any trauma to the foot. At the age of 2 8, while living in Curasao, he underwent the first of seven operations on his left foot. There were multiple papules and nodules on the left foot. Some nodules had sinuses which discharged yellowish pus in which large, black granules could be seen.
