A 55-year-old teacher had had painful subcutaneous swellings on both her arms for 6 years, after receiving intramuscular multivitamin injections for generalized weakness. She did not have fever, constitutional or systemic symptoms. Cutaneous examination revealed ill-defined, subcutaneous, firm,
The authors report a case of subcutaneous mucormycosis in a diabetic patient with verrucous lesions in the fourth finger of the right hand. Initially diagnosed as a fixed cutaneous sporotrichosis case, success was obtained with the use of potassium iodide with healing of the lesion in a period of
A 48-year-old male developed fever and sore throat while in Spain and was admitted to hospital, dehydrated, ketotic, pyrexial, and with a blood glucose of 35 mmol/l. Despite treatment with intravenous fluids, insulin, cephalosporin, potassium and bicarbonate he returned to Britain 7 days later,
Mucormycosis in two patients with multiple-organ failure appeared as a cutaneous lesion and spread rapidly. In the first case, wet mounts and potassium hydroxide preparations were unhelpful, but a punch biopsy specimen established the diagnosis. Prompt and extensive debridement and amphotericin B
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare direct microscopic examination with culture and PCR for the diagnosis of Mucorales infection in blood and tissue specimens.
METHODS
Blood samples and tissue specimens were obtained from 28 patients (total 58 samples) with suspected invasive fungal
Meteorological data show that disastrous floods are increasingly frequent and more severe in recent years, perhaps due to climatic changes such as global warming. During and after a flood disaster, traumatic injuries, communicable diseases, chemical exposures, malnutrition, decreased access to care,
BACKGROUND
Granulomatous dermatitis is a distinctive histopathologic cutaneous reaction pattern against various infectious and noninfectious agents. Cytologically, granulomatous dermatitis shows granulomas and multinucleated giant cells. Various etiologic agents of granulomatous diseases can also be
Successful chemotherapy of the systemic mycoses now covers a span of more than 75 years and dates to the first reported use of potassium iodide for treatment of sporotrichosis. The second drug with efficacy was stilbamidine, and its currently available successor, hydroxystilbamidine isethionate,
A 26-year-old male patient presented with features suggestive of osteomyelitis involving the entire left femur, hip joint and knee joint. Culture from the debrided tissue grew Acinetobacter spp. and he was treated with sensitivity based antibiotics but the symptoms did not resolve. The synovial
Phycomycoses are opportunistic fungal diseases as far as mucormycosis is concerned, but for basidiobolomycosis and entomophthoromycosis, the adjective 'opportunistic' should be used with caution. Mucormycosis assumes cranial, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, disseminated, cutaneous and focal forms: the
OBJECTIVE
To describe the clinicopathological and radiologic features in five cases of primary and secondary orbital aspergillosis.
METHODS
Case series.
METHODS
Ophthalmology department of a university hospital.
METHODS
Five patients over 65 years of age with invasive rhinosino-orbital
BACKGROUND
The fungi pertaining to order Mucorales usually cause an acute form of clinical disease called mucormycosis. A primary chronic presentation in an immunocompetent patient is a rare form of mucormycosis. Mucor irregularis is known for causing chronic cutaneous infections geographically
Fifty cases of nasosinusal fungal granuloma were admitted under the ENT Department in a teaching tertiary care hospital in India during a thirteen-year period. Aspergillus species was found to be the most common causative fungus (29) followed by Mucorales (14), Entomophthorales (5) and Fusarium (2)
Objective: Posaconazole (PSO) is commonly used in the treatment of invasive fungal infections. PSO-induced primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) is rare, and we present what we think to be the third case report of its incidence. We want to
