Osteoarticular Sporotrichosis in a Brazilian Endemic Setting: Associated Factors and Outcomes
ABSTRACT Background Osteoarticular infection is an emerging complication of sporotrichosis, often leading to a significant increase in morbidity and longer treatment. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of osteoarticular sporotrichosis (OS) in southeastern Brazil (2014–2024) using clinical, epidemiological, and molecular data.

Temporal and spatial distribution of sporotrichosis in the Rio de Janeiro Metropolitan Area, Brazil: a comparison between human and animal cases (2013-2020) [PDF]
Cat-transmitted sporotrichosis is currently hyperendemic in the Rio de Janeiro Metropolitan Area, Brazil. Despite the zoonotic context, surveillance is fragmented, with human and animal contagion being assessed separately.
