Abstract:
A case of sporotrichosis, developed on left upper eyelid in 2 weeks after double eyelid operation, was presented. Eruptions were distributed along the operation site and similar to pyoderma or keloid. Painless subcutaneous nodule appeared near the lateral angle of eye in 8 months after onset. Sporotrichum schenckii was cultivated from the tissue fluid of the lesion. PAS positive spores were found extra-cellularly and in histiocytes and multi-nucleated giant cells.
