V Hopwood1, D A Hicks, S Thomas, E G Evans.   

Abstract

A case of primary cutaneous zygomycosis due to Absidia corymbifera in a patient with AIDS is described. The lesions, which were located on the forehead, jaw and chest, were intradermal, extending into the subcutaneous fat and did not appear to be associated with any trauma. No deep-seated infection was evident suggesting that the superficial lesions were exogenous in origin. The possible aetiology of this infection is discussed.
