General observations are presented emphasizing the relevance of close clinical and dermatologic follow-up in high-risk SOT patients with specific comments regarding treatment regimens and outcomes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pustules may also be present. 5 Immunocompromised patients may present similar symptoms as immunocompetent patients or with subcutaneous nodules and abscesses. 6 - 8 Trauma is also considered an incitation factor in these cases. [doi.org]

In severe or recurrent cases, further workup may also be required. Oral antifungal medications are the standard of care of majocchi's granuloma. [en.wikipedia.org]

What was missing from this patient’s workup was a definitive diagnosis, which could have been obtained with a biopsy, culture or KOH preparation to identify fungal elements. [clinicaladvisor.com]

It is important to perform a thorough examination for latent dermatophyte infection, including skin and nail lesions, before treatment with TNF-alpha inhibitors and during traditional psoriasis treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment with oral Griseofulvin was successful. [doi.org]

However, there are only a few reports in the literature of facial involvement. [2], [3], [4] The prognosis of MG can be regarded as good, because there is effective pharmacotherapy available for it. [ijdvl.com]

Although primarily caused by keratinophilic dermatophytes such as anthropophilic Trichophyton rubrum, species from the Aspergillus and Phoma genera have been occasionally detected as etiologic agents of MG. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
