Allergic fungal sinusitis caused by Schizophyllum commune
A case of allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS) due to Schizophyllum commune was reported. The pathogen was identified using molecular bioanalysis. The patient underwent the functional endoscopic sinus surgery followed by the radical maxillary sinusotomy with canine fossa trephine. This case suggested that complete surgery allowed optimal disease clearance for AFS caused by Schizophyllum commune.
متن کاملMaxillary sinusitis caused by medusoid form of Schizophyllum commune.
We present a case of maxillary sinusitis in a diabetic female caused by the basidiomycete fungus Schizophyllum commune. Identification of the isolate was hampered by its atypical features. Subcultures formed sterile medusoid structures from nonclamped mycelia until spontaneous dikaryotization resulted in the development of characteristic fan-shaped fruiting bodies. Identification was confirmed ...
متن کاملSomatic recombination in Schizophyllum commune.
A CONSIDERABLE effort has been put forth in the past few years to elucidate the mechanisms of internuclear genetic exchange in vegetative mycelia in the fungi (PONTECORVO 1956; RAPER 1959; DAY 1960a). PONTECORVO (1956) described a system whereby, following the formation of a heterokaryon and a diploid nucleus, the phenomenon of crossing-over was a process distinct from that of haploidization. C...
متن کاملFruiting Dikaryon of Schizophyllum commune
The patterns of polypeptides synthesized by two co-isogenic monokaryons and the derived dikaryon of the basidiomycete Schizophyflum commune, growing in surface culture, were compared by two-dimensional PAGE after labelling with [35S]sulphate. Synthesis of most of the polypeptides (400 analysed) was common but at day 3 some 30 polypeptides were synthesized in the dikaryon which were not seen in ...
متن کاملSchizophyllum Commune a Causative Agent of Fungal Sinusitis: A Case Report
We present a case of maxillary sinusitis caused by Schizophyllum commune, in a 50-year-old female. The patient presented with nasal obstruction, purulent nasal discharge from right side of the nose, cough, headache, and sneezing. Computed tomography revealed extensive opacity of the right maxillary sinus as well as erosion of the nasal wall and maxillary bone. Functional endoscopic sinus surger...
