We present a case of deep dermatomycosis caused by Trichophyton rubrum that developed after administration of SARS-CoV-2 BNT162b2 vaccination. A 75-year-old man was vaccinated with SARS-CoV-2 on day 0 and day 23. From day 25, pustules began to appear. A skin biopsy was performed. Tissue culture revealed the presence of Trichophyton rubrum. The patient was treated with topical luliconazole and 100 mg/day oral fosravuconazole for 84 days, after which the symptoms resolved.
