title: Cutaneous inoculation blastomycosis.
abstract: Cutaneous inoculation blastomycosis is a rare illness. We report a case of cutaneous inoculation blastomycosis in a patient who was inoculated after being struck by a projectile while performing yard work. We also review cases of cutaneous inoculation blastomycosis described elsewhere, to improve characterization of the syndrome.
