Chromomycosis usually occurs in cutaneous or subcutaneous tissue. Many case reports are found in dermatology. Rarely does it occur in deep soft tissue.
We report a case of granuloma caused by Phialophora Verrucosa between the left Achilles tendon and tibia. Magnetic Resonance Imaging disclosed a low intensity signal on T1-and T2-weighted images, and high intensity on Gd-enhanced, otherwise known as the dark ring sign. We believe that MRI is useful for the diagnosis of chromomycosis.
