Cases of chromoblastomycosis, although not uncommon, have rarely been reported in the literature from our region. These are usually misdiagnosed as cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis because we reside in an endemic region for this disease. We present herein patients with facial chromoblastomycosis. They were treated with long-term sodium stibogluconate, but showed no response to therapy. A biopsy revealed these to be cases of chromoblastomycosis, after which the patients were started on antifungal agents. There was marked improvement after the correct treatment was initiated.
