Resumo: Malassezia folliculitis is an inflammatory disorder observed in both immunocompetent and immunosuppressed patients. The authors describe an unusual and exuberant presumed case affecting the face, trunk and upper limbs of a 12-year-old nonimmunosuppressed patient. Although the agent was not identified by culture, the clinical and histopathological aspects plus the response to specific treatment support the diagnosis of Malassezia folliculitis. The only possible predisponent cause observed on the patient was greasy skin. Repetitive cultures were negative. Treatment with itraconazol promoted apparent cure, however, the patient relapsed twelve months later.

Os autores relatam um provável caso exuberante e incomum comprometendo a face, tronco e membros superiores de paciente de 12 anos de idade, não imunossuprimido. Embora o agente não tenha sido cultivado, os achados clínicos e histopatológicos aliados à resposta terapêutica sugerem o diagnóstico de foliculite por Malassezia. A única possivel causa predisponente demonstrada no paciente foi a pele oleosa. Tentativas de cultivo do agente foram negativas. O tratamento com itraconazol promoveu cura aparente, entretanto, houve recaída após 12 meses.Univ Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho, Med Sch Botucatu,Dermatol & Radiotherapy Dept, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho, Med Sch Botucatu,Teaching Hosp, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho,Lab M, Med Sch Botucatu,Dermatol & Radiotherapy Dept, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho, Dept Pathol,Med Sch Botucatu, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho, Med Sch Botucatu,Dermatol & Radiotherapy Dept, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho, Med Sch Botucatu,Teaching Hosp, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho,Lab M, Med Sch Botucatu,Dermatol & Radiotherapy Dept, Botucatu, SP, BrazilUniv Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho F, Fac Med Botucatu, Paulista State Univ Julio de Mesquita Filho, Dept Pathol,Med Sch Botucatu, Botucatu, SP, BrazilSoc Brasileira DermatologiaUniversidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)Marques, Silvio Alencar [UNESP]Gomes da Silva, Sabrina Bortoletto [UNESP]Pires de Camargo, Rosangela Maria [UNESP]Stolf, Hamilton Ometto [UNESP]Marques, Mariângela Esther Alencar [UNESP]2014-05-20T13:34:08Z2014-05-20T13:34:08Z2012-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article459-462application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0365-05962012000300016Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia.
