- Abstract
This paper presents two cases of fixed-cutaneous sporotrichosis acquired in a laboratory by two researchers working with S. schenckii. The first case was located in anterior upper third in the right, without history of trauma. It was initially decided to conduct an observational study on patient with a pregnancy of 25 weeks of gestation. Treatment was started three months after child-birth, with good response. The second case presented a nodule in right palm, three weeks before he suffered stab wounds by breaking a tube with S. schenckii. A review of the literature is done on sporotrichosis accidentally acquired in laboratory and considerations regarding the risks and measures to be adopted by those working with microorganisms, either for diagnostic or research purposes.
