- Subcutaneous mycoses comprise a broad range of infections and are a heterogeneous group of diseases associated with involvement of the dermis and/or epidermis. In Europe, the prevalence of these infections in horses is not high, but the current market trends related to the purchase and transport of animals beyond their primary environment, indicate the need to identify the fungal etiological agents, and therapeutic management of these infections. This article reviews the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and therapies of equine subcutaneous mycoses. The organisms responsible, dematiaceous or hyaline molds and dimorphic fungi, establish themselves in the skin and produce localized lesions in the surrounding tissues and lymph nodes with minimal systemic manifestations. The common diseases histoplasmosis, mycetoma, phaeohyphomycosis, pythiosis, sporotrichosis, entomophthoramycosis, and mucormycosis. These are generally chronic and progressive diseases, and their diagnosis and treatment may be challenging. The main route of infection is through skin injury or through contamination of existing wound. Subcutaneous mycoses are characterized by the presence of nodules, increasing in size, which may suppurate and drain a serous, serosanguineous, or purulent discharge. The diagnosis commonly relies on microscopic examination of clinical specimens and fungal culture. In turn, treatment is complicated and usually depends upon individual cases; however, it is usually based on a combination of both surgical, i.e., excision of the lesion, and long-term anti-fungal treatment.
