Surgical Management and Outcomes of Cutaneous Mold Infections in Immunocompromised Children
Conclusions
This study is the first to critically evaluate the methodology for surgical resection of cutaneous fungal infections in immunocompromised children. We suggest timely excision once diagnosed with, at minimum, 0.5-cm margins and intraoperative pathologic study when considering surgical treatment for this rare but serious infection.
