Phaeohyphomycosis--first case in Puerto Rico.
A 24 year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus developed a subcutaneous nodule on the back which upon histopathological examination was found to be a case of phaeohyphomycosis. To our knowledge, this is the first case of the condition to be reported in Puerto Rico.
