Abstract

In two Dutch subjects who had been on holiday in the tropics, a woman aged 32 and a man of Surinam descent aged 52 years, and in two men aged 21 and 38 years who had arrived from the tropics in the Netherlands, one recently and one 15 years previously, import skin diseases were diagnosed: larva migrans cutanea, cutaneous leishmaniasis, mycetoma and lobomycosis. The diagnosis was based on the anamnesis, the clinical picture and histopathological findings. The patients were cured by administration of antimicrobial agents and (or) excision. When travellers or immigrants from the tropics present with skin lesions, an imported skin disease should be considered.
