Popis: The Authors describe two cases of Sporotrichoid infection characterized by the onset, above previous skin accidental injuries, of a papulo-pustular lesion, with further development of centripetal satellite lesions similar to the first one. A precise etiological definition was possible only after the cultural,l mycological and bacteriological examination of biopsy material. The very similar clinical features of the two cases were due to different etiological pathogens: Sporothrix schenckii in one case and Mycobacterium marinum in the other case. A complete healing of the skin lesion was obtained with Itraconazole in the first case and Rifampin in the second case.
