    Area of Science:

    • Mycology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Chromomycosis is an uncommon fungal infection caused by dematiaceous fungi.
    • It typically presents as a localized cutaneous disease, rarely involving visceral organs.

    Observation:

    • The cutaneous form commonly affects extremities, face, or buttocks.
    • This report documents an unusual case of chromomycosis involving the auricle (ear).

    Findings:

    • The case demonstrates chromomycosis presenting on a rarely affected body site.
    • This expands the known spectrum of clinical presentations for chromomycosis.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering chromomycosis in differential diagnoses for auricular lesions.
    • Suggests the need for increased awareness of atypical presentations of chromomycosis in clinical practice.
