Eumycetoma due to Curvularia lunata
change in the crescent-shaped cap of the distal phalanx are the two main candidate pathogenetic mechanisms that have been proposed.[6] Exposure to teratogens, especially antiepileptic drugs in utero, in mothers with epoxide hydrolase deficiency is another supposed cause of COIF. This probably could explain our patient’s predicament, as her mother had consumed an abortifacient when our patient w...
متن کاملAllergic fungal rhinosinusitis due to Curvularia lunata.
We report a case of Curvularia lunata infection in an immunocompetent male with an initial diagnosis of suspected left side allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS), treated surgically. He had a relapse of nasal polyposis and underwent a surgical revision under local anaesthesia with endoscopic nasal polypectomy. The histological examination of the surgical specimen showed an inflammatory polyp of...
متن کاملSpontaneous Regression of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Mycosis Due to Curvularia lunata
Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) is a pulmonary hypersensitivity disease mainly caused by Aspergillus fumigatus. The mainstay treatment for ABPM is systemic corticosteroid therapy. A 25-year-old man presented with pulmonary infiltrates. His peripheral eosinophil, total serum IgE, and serum Aspergillus-specific IgE levels were elevated. The patient tested positive in a skin test for Aspe...
متن کاملIdentification of B Cell Epitopes of Alcohol Dehydrogenase Allergen of Curvularia lunata
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Epitope identification assists in developing molecules for clinical applications and is useful in defining molecular features of allergens for understanding structure/function relationship. The present study was aimed to identify the B cell epitopes of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) allergen from Curvularia lunata using in-silico methods and immunoassay. METHOD B cell epitop...
متن کاملAllergic bronchopulmonary disease caused by Curvularia lunata and Drechslera hawaiiensis.
Three patients who developed bronchoceles caused by fungi other than Aspergillus sp are described. The first patient presented for investigation of a lesion at the right hilum on chest radiograph and a raised blood eosinophil count. A bronchogram showed complete block of the apical segmental bronchus which at operation was shown to be caused by inspissated material. The second patient was inves...
