We rejected the hypothesis of erysipelas, due to the clinical features, and our diagnostic hypotheses were oriented towards sporotrichosis, atypical mycobacteriosis, cutaneous tuberculosis and cutaneous sarcoidosis. Histological examination performed after a skin biopsy was compatible with a diagnosis of sporotrichosis. However, PCR performed on fresh tissue demonstrated the presence of <jats:italic>M. marinum<\/jats:italic>.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusion.<\/jats:bold> The case reported is interesting for the unusual clinical localization and modality of infection. The patient became infected by contact with contaminated remains or in the sea, in a geographical area not endemic for <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>marinum<\/jats:italic>. The previous state of immunosuppression favoured infection; however, the presence of <jats:italic>M. marinum<\/jats:italic> in this area suggests a possible tropicalization of the water of the Mediterranean Sea. To our knowledge, this case is the only one reported in the literature with this modality of infection and in that geographical area.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1099\/jmmcr.0.005088","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,11]],"date-time":"2017-04-11T20:12:32Z","timestamp":1491941552000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["An unusual cutaneous infection caused by Mycobacterium marinum"],"prefix":"10.1099","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Federica","family":"Veronese","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Science, University of Eastern Piedmont, Novara, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elisa","family":"Zavattaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Translational Medicine, University of Eastern Piedmont, Novara, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pamela","family":"Farinelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"SCDU Dermatology, AOU Maggiore della Carit\u00e0, Novara, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Enrico","family":"Colombo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Translational Medicine, University of Eastern Piedmont, Novara, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paola","family":"Savoia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Science, University of Eastern Piedmont, Novara, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"345","reference":[{"key":"R1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.det.2015.03.017"},{"key":"R2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/313972"},{"key":"R3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s15010-015-0776-8"},{"key":"R4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/bjps.1999.3245"},{"key":"R5","article-title":"Micobatteriosi atipiche nel trapianto renale: due casi clinici","volume":"30","author":"Mele","year":"2013","journal-title":"G Ital Nefrol"},{"key":"R6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1684\/ejd.2013.2103"},{"key":"R7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1529-8019.2008.00187.x"},{"key":"R8","first-page":"31","article-title":"Sporotrichoid atypical cutaneous infection caused by Mycobacterium marinum","volume":"18","author":"Tigges","year":"2009","journal-title":"Acta Dermatovenerol Alp Pannonica Adriat"}],"container-title":["JMM Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.microbiologyresearch.org\/content\/journal\/jmmcr\/10.1099\/jmmcr.0.005088?crawler=true&mimetype=application\/pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,15]],"date-time":"2023-12-15T10:28:33Z","timestamp":1702636113000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.microbiologyresearch.org\/content\/journal\/jmmcr\/10.1099\/jmmcr.0.005088"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,12]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,12]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1099\/jmmcr.0.005088","relation":{},"ISSN":["2053-3721"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2053-3721","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,12]]}}}
