title: Cutaneous aspergillosis associated with HIV infection.
abstract: Primary cutaneous aspergillosis is rare but has been described in immunosuppressed individuals. Cutaneous aspergillosis associated with HIV infection, to date, has primarily been described in hospitalized individuals with advanced HIV following skin trauma. We describe a case of primary cutaneous aspergillosis in a HIV-infected, antiretroviral therapy naïve patient with moderate immunosuppression.
