Cystic chromomycosis of the skin.
Five patients with solitary cystic granulomatous lesions of the skin are described. Wood splinters and brown pigmented fungal elements were present in all 5 cases. "Cystic chromomycosis" is suggested as an appropriate title to avoid confusion with the cutaneous verrucous form, chromoblastomycosis.
