RESUMO
Chronic meningitis caused by Sporothrix sp. is occasionally described in immunosuppressed patients. We report the challenges in diagnosing and managing 2 nonimmunocompromised patients with hydrocephalus and chronic meningitis caused by Sporothrix brasiliensis. This more virulent species appears to contribute more atypical and severe cases than other related species.
