Abstract
Sporotrichosis is the most frequent subcutaneous mycosis in Latin America. Sporothrix brasiliensis is the most virulent species, responsible for the majority of human and animal cases in Brazil. Osteomyelitis was described as a potential comorbidity of S. brasiliensis infection; however, surgical amputation resulting from an extracutaneous form is a rare outcome. In such cases, immunodeficiency and alcoholism must be investigated. We present two unusual cases of surgical amputation as a severe morbidity resulting from osteomyelitis by S. brasiliensis in immunocompetent nonalcoholic patients.
