Human infections with Dermatophilus sp.: travel-associated first case and a local cluster in the context of emerging European outbreaks, Basel, Switzerland, 2025 to 2026
Дата публикации: 23-07-2026 00:00:00
We report six human Dermatophilus infections diagnosed in Basel between May 2025 and March 2026. The travel-associated first case developed a pustular rash and conjunctivitis after a stay in Thailand. A second imported case occurred after travel to Indonesia. Four subsequent locally acquired cases presented with genital or inguinal folliculitis-like lesions without reported animal contact. Whole-genome sequencing placed all isolates in a monophyletic cluster within the D. congolensis_A lineage, supporting possible human-to-human transmission. Enhanced surveillance and molecular diagnostics are warranted.

Abstract
We report six human Dermatophilus infections diagnosed in Basel between May 2025 and March 2026. The travel-associated first case developed a pustular rash and conjunctivitis after a stay in Thailand. A second imported case occurred after travel to Indonesia. Four subsequent locally acquired cases presented with genital or inguinal folliculitis-like lesions without reported animal contact. Whole-genome sequencing placed all isolates in a monophyletic cluster within the D. congolensis_A lineage, supporting possible human-to-human transmission. Enhanced surveillance and molecular diagnostics are warranted.
