| Abstract | Sporotrichosis is a worldwide distributed subcutaneous mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungi belonging to the genus Sporothrix.1 Since 1998, Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Brazil, became a hyperendemic region for cat-transmitted zoonotic sporotrichosis associated with the most virulent species, S. brasiliensis.1,2 Itraconazole is the first choice of treatment for cutaneous sporotrichosis, terbinafine and potassium iodide are alternative options. The median time until the cure is around 12 weeks, but it can be longer for some patients and adverse effects may lead to discontinuation of treatment.2-5 Cryosurgery is an effective method largely used in dermatology.
