Abstract
Sporotrichosis is an implantation mycosis due to the genus Sporothrix. Cutaneous disseminated sporotrichosis is an unusual clinical form that often affects immunocompromised patients. We report a case of cutaneous disseminated sporotrichosis in an immunocompetent famer from a rural region of Madagascar, treated successfully with Itraconazole 200mg twice a day. This case highlights the role of multiple inoculation affecting different parts of the body as a risk factor of cutaneous disseminated sporotrichosis in an immunocompetent individually.
