孢子菌病是由二形真菌孢子菌引起的一种真菌病，其主要传播方式是从植物和其他有机物中创伤性接种真菌分生孢子。方法采用真菌培养法对某农村地区1只猫和1户家庭3名成员进行孢子虫病鉴定。结果下臀部及四肢皮肤病变，无损伤报告。结论尽管在从事土壤和植物工作的人群中应考虑孢子虫病作为鉴别诊断，但在特定地理区域，猫皮肤和家庭慢性病变病例可能是一种新的流行病学方法。
Introduction Sporotrichosis is a mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungus Sporothrix spp., and the primary mode of transmission is traumatic inoculation of fungus conidia from plants and other organic matter. Methods Sporotrichosis was established in a cat and in three members of one family from a rural area, by fungal growth in culture. Results The cutaneous lesions developed on the lower buttock and limbs with no report of any injury. Conclusion Although sporotrichosis should be considered for differential diagnosis in people working with soil and plants, cases of chronic lesions on skin of cats and in households is probably a new epidemiological approach in a given geographic region.
