Disseminated Trichosporonosis with Atypical Histology Findings in a Patient with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia

We report a case of disseminated Trichosporon asahii in a patient on systemic anti‐fungal therapy who presented with multiple cutaneous nodules suggestive of fungal infection. Histologic features resembled neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis but staining with periodic acid‐Schiff and Gomori methenamine silver confirmed the clinical diagnosis. This case highlights the importance of maintaining suspicion for trichosporonosis and contextualizing histologic findings within the underlying clinical picture.
