Sažetak
Direct contact with meat or other animals products, contaminated with gram-positive, bacillus, Erysipelothrix (E.) rhusiopathiae. We present a case of a 50-years-old house&not ; ; wife, whose hobby was fishing, with reddish, tender patch on the fifth finger and dorsum of the left hand, which developed a week after she was injured while boning the fish. Erysipeloid is almost always an occupational disease. Disease is associated with a vari&not ; ; ety of occupations among which at the greatest risk are, fisherman and retailers of fish, butchers, farm workers, veterinarians, housewives, and in the past also button (bone) and leather workers as well as soap makers. Handling the fish, while boning it, infected our patients. The patient was treated with orally administered penicillin V 1.500.000 i.j (international units) t.i.d. for 7 days, with complete resolution.
