Abstract
Background: Cutaneous Curvularia is a rare fungal infection which presents itself as erythematous, non-tender, non-pruritic, ulcerative lesions. To the best of our knowledge, only a few cases reported in the literature have occurred in immunocompromised and/or neutropenic patients, none of which have been published within the past five years. Objective: We report the case of a 53-year-old man diagnosed with diffuse large B cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and associated neutropenia who developed several erythematous macular lesions with central excoriations and crusting on his bilateral anterior tibiae, and whose fungal culture was positive for Curvularia sp.
