Abstract
We report on a family of three in a rabbit farm, especially children with Majocchi granuloma as the main clinical feature of cross-infection of Trichophyton mentagrophytes, provides experience in reducing the rate of clinical misdiagnosis. Based on the pathological features of Majocchi's granuloma, taking into account that severe inflammatory reactions are also responsible for the damage of the body. In Majocchi's granuloma treatment strategy, we recommend the use of anti-inflammatory Chinese medicines that have a hormonal effect and have no side effects.
