Abstract

In the event of non-specific epidermal lesions, the importance of a comprehensive anamnesis becomes especially apparent. In the following, we report on a patient case in which only a focused anamnesis was able to bring light into the darkness of numerous differential diagnoses - and to produce the diagnosis of a rare but in this collective common illness: primary cutaneous cryptococcosis.
