[Cutaneous cryptococcosis in an immunocompetent host].
An immunocompetent 62-year-old woman presented with cutaneous lesions over her right arm and the hypogastrium. The diagnosis of cutaneous cryptococcosis was made on the basis of the demonstration and isolation of Cryptococcus neoformans from the aspirated pus. The patient responded to fluconazole treatment.
متن کاملPrimary cutaneous aspergillosis in an immunocompetent host.
Sir, Primary cutaneous aspergillosis is rare and when seen it is usually associated with compromised immune status of the host. The lesions usually occur at the site of trauma, e.g. in a sick patient at the site of armboards, tapes or intravenous catheters. The fungus, Aspergillus, is a saprophytic dimorphic mould present in soil, decaying vegetation and organic debris. Clinically it involves t...
متن کاملIntraspecific functional and genetic diversity of Petriella setifera
The aim of the study was an analysis of the intraspecific genetic and functional diversity of the new isolated fungal strains of P. setifera. This is the first report concerning the genetic and metabolic diversity of Petriella setifera strains isolated from industrial compost and the first description of a protocol for AFLP fingerprinting analysis optimised for these fungal species. The results...
متن کاملMetabolic and Genetic Properties of Petriella setifera Precultured on Waste
Although fungi that belong to Petriella genus are considered to be favorable agents in the process of microbial decomposition or as plant endophytes, they may simultaneously become plant pests. Hence, nutrition factors are supposed to play an important role. Therefore, it was hypothesized that Petriella setifera compost isolates, precultured on three different waste-based media containing oak s...
متن کاملPulmonary Nocardiosis due to Nocardia asiatica in an Immunocompetent Host.
We describe a case of pulmonary nocardiosis due to Nocardia asiatica in an immunocompent 64-year-old-female. Wadowsky-Yee-Okuda-α-ketoglutarate (WYOα) agar, a selective media for Legionella species, was useful for the detection based on the growth-inhibition of normal oral flora and growth-promotion of Nocardia species.
