Combination Treatment with Photodynamic Therapy and Antibiotic in Refractory Cutaneous Nocardiosis: A Case Report.
Background: Effective management of cutaneous nocardiosis is hampered by the lack of defined treatment recommendations and frequently requires prolonged antibiotic therapy.
Case presentation: This report describes a case of cutaneous nocardiosis who was effectively treated in a brief amount of time with three sessions of 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) in conjunction with antibiotics.
Conclusion: ALA-PDT combined with antibiotics can effectively treat refractory cutaneous nocardiosis.
