简要总结
In Costa Rica there are some descriptive studies of some of these rare infectious diseases (sporotrichosis, chromomycosis and mycetomas); however, there are no recent published reports. Most of the publications on the subject date back to the previous century; from 2000 to the present year there are only publications of small series of cases, so the current behavior of these skin infections is unknown. The primary objective is to analyze the epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic profile and determine the risk factors in patients with a diagnosis of rare infections of dermatological interest treated at Hospital México, Hospital Rafael Calderón Guardia, and Hospital San Juan de Dios during the period 2019-2023.
