Abstract

Fonsecaea pedrosoi is the most prevalent aetiological agent of chromoblastomycosis. Fonsecaea monophora is a new species segregated from Fonsecaea pedrosoi. Herein, we report on three cases of chromoblastomycosis caused by F. monophora that were successfully treated with terbinafine and/or itraconazole. Clinical characteristics and mycological parameters are described. Two of the three patients underwent combination therapy with itraconazole and terbinafine during early stages of treatment and were completely healed in a relatively short course of treatment.
