Molecular identification of black-grain mycetoma agents.
Black-grain mycetomas are subcutaneous devastating chronic infections due to several dematiaceous fungi. They are diagnosed mostly in tropical countries. Identification of these fungi with standard mycological procedures is difficult because of their poor or delayed sporulation. The aim of this study was thus to assess the accuracy of molecular identification of these fungi. A total of 54 strai...
متن کاملNew species of Madurella, causative agents of black-grain mycetoma.
A new species of nonsporulating fungus, isolated in a case of black-grain mycetoma in Sudan, is described as Madurella fahalii. The species is characterized by phenotypic and molecular criteria. Multigene phylogenies based on the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS), the partial β-tubulin gene (BT2), and the RNA polymerase II subunit 2 gene (RPB2) indicate that M. fahalii is c...

متن کاملMycetoma caused by Nocardia transvalensis.
Nocardia transvalensis can be a rare cause of actinomycotic mycetoma. A 40 year old man presented with his right arm showing multiple discharging sinuses, which had been present for four years. N transvalensis was isolated from a biopsy specimen. No other underlying disease was detected. The patient was successfully managed with surgical excision of the lesion and treatment with co-trimoxazole....

CASE SUMMARY An 18-month-old male neutered Ragdoll cat presented with an 8 week history of progressive unilateral right-sided mucopurulent nasal discharge and exophthalmos. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a heterogeneous right retrobulbar mass and bilateral nasal cavity disease. Filamentous structures seen on cytology of retrobulbar and nasal biopsies were mistakenly identified as filamento...
