Resumo
A esporotricose é uma micose subcutânea emergente caracterizada pela
formação de lesões nos homens e animais, sendo um importante e
negligenciada no Brasil. A infecção fúngica é causada por um complexo de no
mínimo quatro espécies, tendo importância no Brasil, as espécies schenckii e
brasiliensis. A maior parte dos casos da doença se dá em regiões tropicais e
acomete principalmente os felinos (sendo o gato o principal vetor), os quais
transmite a doença aos humanos. No Brasil possui regiões endêmicas, como o
Rio de Janeiro. Além disso, também há registro de casos fora dessas áreas
referente a surtos locais. O presente trabalho tem por objetivo levantar os
principais assuntos e peculiaridades da doença através de uma revisão
bibliográfica (em bases científicas SciELO e PubMed), como: biologia do fungo,
dados epidemiológicos, o complexo causador da esporotricose, a micose em
diferentes animas, bem como outros dados pertinentes a essa zoonose.
Sporotrichosis is an emerging subcutaneous mycosis characterized by the formation of lesions in men and animals, being important and neglected in Brazil. The fungal infection is part of a complex of four species, having importance in Brazil, as species schenckii and brasiliensis. Most of the cases of the disease are the tropical region and mainly affects the felines (being the cat of the main vector), which transmute the disease to humans. In Brazil there are endemic regions, such as Rio de Janeiro. In addition, there are also cases of registration of areas related to local outbreaks. The present work has the objective of solving the problem and the peculiarities of the disease through the bibliographical review, such as: epidemiological, epidemiological, sporotrichosis causing complex, mycosis in different animals, as well as other relevant data for this zoonosis.
