Esporotricosis: la micosis subcutánea más distribuida en el mundo

Abstract

La esporotricosis es una enfermedad micótica causada por hongos de la familia Sporothrix schenckii, puede cursar de manera subaguda o crónica y afecta principalmente al tejido subcutáneo y linfático. La transmisión se realiza principalmente mediante la inoculación con material contaminado en zonas de la piel que tienen un trauma. Puede afectar tanto a hombres como a mujeres y es más común en pacientes pediátricos y adultos jóvenes. Es la micosis por implantación más distribuida en el mundo, se puede encontrar tanto en regiones intertropicales como en climas templados. Presenta varias formas clínicas, la más frecuente es la linfocutánea que se puede encontrar en un 70% de los casos, seguido por la forma fija en un 25%. El diagnóstico se realiza mediante biopsia del nódulo para poder realizar el cultivo micológico y confirmar la sospecha diagnóstica. El fármaco de elección contra las formas cutáneas linfangítica y fija es itraconazol, pero tiene la desventaja de ser un medicamento de alto costo, por lo que el tratamiento de elección en países en vías de desarrollo ha sido el yoduro de potasio, ya que se caracteriza por ser efectivo, bien tolerado y de bajo costo.
