Majocchi's granuloma is a deep dermal infection caused by dermatophytes. It has been described in the context of immunodepression secondary to infection with immunosuppressive treatment. It represents an important functional and aesthetic prejudice. The diagnosis is often late. We report a case located on the pubis in a 49-year-old immunocompetent patient in a context of voluntary depigmentation. The patient presented with onychomycosis and dermatophytes on the pubic area. The diagnosis was based on clinical findings and the presence of mycelial filaments on direct examination. The patient was treated with terbinafine with regression of the lesions in four weeks.
