Differential Diagnosis
Sporotrichosis manifests through a broad range of clinical symptoms shared with multiple different diseases, causing misdiagnosis to be common.[1]
Cutaneous lesions must be differentiated from:
- Cutaneous tuberculosis
- Cutaneous leishmaniasis
- Nocardiosis
- Chromoblastomycosis
- Blastomycosis
- Paracoccidioidomycosis
- Atypical mycobacteriosis
Ulcerating lesions must be differentiated from:
