Abstract
Penicillium marneffei is an opportunistic fungal pathogen in HIV disease. We report the case of a patient with AIDS who presented with general weakness and generalized skin rashes. No specific allergic history or recent medication were reported. The skin lesions disappeared after adequate antifungal therapy. A blood culture obtained from the patient confirmed the presence of P. marneffei, infection which is characterized by cutaneous umbilicated lesions in AIDS patients. We report this case on account of the unusual skin presentation.
