[Subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis due to Exophiala spinifera in a renal transplant recipient].

Introduction: Among the dematiaceous fungi responsible for human or animal phaeohyphomycosis, the Exophiala genus is a well-known etiologic agent and presently includes nine species considered as opportunist pathogens. To our knowledge, Exophiala spinifera has been reported as causative agent of only thirteen cases of cutaneous or systemic phaeohyphomycosis. We describe some typical phaeohyphomycotic cysts.
