Abstract
Primary cutaneous rhinosporidiosis is very rare and only 10 cases have been reported in India. A 51 year old man had a painless, progressive ulcer for 6 months on the right leg. The ulcer was 2 cm x 2 cm and, had raised, irregular, nodular and partly, undermined margins. Biopsy of the ulcer margin revealed rhinosporidiosis. Excision led to uneventful healing.
Keywords: Rhinosporidiosis, Cutaneous.
