摘要
Microsporum canis is a dermatophyte known to cause superficial skin infections. In immunocompromised patients, it can lead to invasive dermatophytosis. We present a case of biopsy-proven left knee mycetoma caused by M canis in a renal transplant patient. Identification of M canis was achieved via sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer regions. Treatment involved surgical debridement, oral posaconazole, and reduction in immunosuppression. In addition, we provide a review of current literature on invasive M canis infections.
