Onycholysis and Chromonychia: A Case Caused by Trichosporon inkin.

María Fernanda Ortega-Springall1, Sara Arroyo-Escalante1, Roberto Arenas1.   

Abstract

Yeasts cause only 5-10% of onychomycosis; the most common yeast is Candida albicans, and rarely Trichosporon spp. is found. Recently, it has become an important cause of fungemia with a high mortality rate in immunocompromised patients. Superficial infections caused by Trichosporon spp., including piedra and onychomycosis, occur in immunocompetent patients. Herein, we report a case of a fungal nail infection characterized by onycholysis and chromonychia caused by Trichosporon inkin.
