Overview
Pathophysiology
Transmission
- S. schenckii is usually transmitted to the human host via posttraumatic inoculation. However, sporotrichosis may also develop as a result of spore inhalation, although this mode of transmission is infrequent.
- Modes of transmission either lead to direct inoculation or enable the entry of the fungus.
- Actions, such as handling thorny plants, sphagnum moss, bales of hay, or any plant or plant product that can cause skin trauma, may enable S. schenckii entry.
Pathogenesis
- The pathophysiology of sporotrichosis depends on the histological subtype.
- The frequently nonspecific histopathology may mimic other granulomatous diseases.[1]
