Relevancia del cuerpo asteroide esporotricósico en el diagnóstico rápido de la esporotricosis
چکیده انگلیسی
Eighty patients with cutaneous sporotrichosis were studied between 1985 and 1996. The investigation of asteroid bodies (AB) was done by direct microscopic slides examination of pus obtained from the lesions. Patients were divided into two groups: 32 consulting before 1989, and 48 consulting after 1990. In the first group, material was obtained as usual by simple digital pressure of the most productive lesion, and then wet preparation microscopic examination was performed. Fourteen patients with AB were found in this group (43.75%). In the second group the initial pus was discarded and new samples were taken more deeply, and examined up to five slides for each patient. The slides were carefully examined at light microscope. Fourty five patients with AB were detected in this group (93.75%). All eighty samples were cultured and all of them were positive for Sporothrix schenckii. The change of methodology to obtain the samples and the exhaustive observations, increased the possibility of AB detection. ABs are of great diagnostic value and might be of importance to initiate treatment before reporting culture.
