Sporotrichosis: an unusual disseminated cutaneous case and a fatal pulmonary case.

Abstract
Two unusual cases of sporotrichosis are presented. One patient had disseminated vesicular skin lesions which yielded Sporothrix schenckii on culture. The other, with extensive pulmonary sporotrichosis, continued to have sputum cultures positive for S schenckii during three years of intensive chemotherapy.
