Chromoblastomycosis: a case series from Sumba, eastern Indonesia.

Chromoblastomycosis is a highly neglected implantation mycosis, typically affecting agricultural workers in impoverished rural communities in (sub)tropical regions. We present a case series of eight individuals with chromoblastomycosis that were identified through teledermatology in Sumba, a remote island in eastern Indonesia. We highlight the challenges faced in managing complex diseases like chromoblastomycosis in underserved communities and illustrate the value of telemedicine in empowering frontline healthcare workers and improving access to skin care.
