Article Synopsis
  • Subcutaneous entomophthoromycosis is a rare fungal infection primarily affecting children and men, often presenting in individuals with immune disorders but can occur in healthy people.
  • Diagnosis involves identifying fungal elements using special staining techniques, and the infection usually responds well to oral antifungal medications like fluconazole.
  • A case study is reported of an immunocompetent nursing mother in her 20s, whose soft tissue mass in the arm was diagnosed as this infection and significantly reduced in size after 2 months of treatment.
