Dermatologic Manifestations of Aspergillosis :
Cutaneous aspergillosis is usually a cutaneous manifestation of disseminated infection with the fungus Aspergillus.
Primary cutaneous disease is rare and is most commonly caused by Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus.
Skin lesions occur in 5-10% of patients with disseminated aspergillosis
![Page 16: Case discusion](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081605/58ee4ab41a28ab737b8b4675/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Cont. .The most typical presentation is implantation of the fungus following trauma, including infections at the site of intravenous cannulas, or venipuncture wounds.
A fumigatus is the most common pathogen associated with disseminated disease with cutaneous involvement.
A flavus or A terreus most often causes the less frequent primary infections of the skin. Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus ustus have also been cultured from cutaneous lesions .

Cont. .
Invasive aspergillosis affects people who have weakened immune systems, such as people who have had a stem cell transplant or organ transplant, are getting chemotherapy for cancer, or are taking high doses of corticosteroids.
