Sporotrichosis usually affects the subcutaneous tissues and lymphatics of extremities and rarely involves the lung. We report a case of primary pulmonary sporotrichosis because the rate of recognition of this condition appears to be increasing. Treatment consisted of amphotericin B and pneumonectomy. The patient died of a postoperative bronchopleural fistula and Pseudomonas infection.
