An immunosuppressed patient who presented with unusual clinical signs of cutaneous alternariosis, including papular, nodular and verrucous lesions of the forearms, is reported. In spite of continuous treatment with oral itraconazole for 6 months, a large, progressive, necrotic ulcer appeared on the patient's left leg. Liposomal amphotericin B was then administered (total dose, 750 mg) with excellent clinical results.
