Isolation of Exophiala dermatitidis from endotracheal aspirate of a cancer patient.
Exophiala (Wangiella) dermatitidis is a melanised (darkly pigmented) yeast-like organism that has been reported from the environment and wild animals. The organism is a frequent coloniser of lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis and causes occasional disseminated phaeohyphomycosis and fungaemia.

متن کاملExophiala (Wangiella) dermatitidis Prosthetic Aortic Valve Endocarditis and Prosthetic Graft Infection in an Immune Competent Patient
Exophiala (Wangiella) dermatitidis is an emerging dematiaceous fungus associated with high mortality rates and is a rare cause of endocarditis. We describe the first case of E. dermatitidis endocarditis of a prosthetic aortic valve and aortic graft in an immune competent patient with no clear risk factors of hematological acquisition.
متن کاملMolecular Phylogenetics of Exophiala Species Isolated from Korea
BACKGROUND Recently, identification of fungi have been supplemented by molecular tools, such as ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis. According to these tools, morphological Exophiala species was newly introduced or redefined. OBJECTIVE This study was designed to investigate the phylogenetics based on ribosomal ITS sequence analysis from clinical Exophiala species iso...
متن کاملIdentification of Exophiala mesophila isolated from treated dental unit waterlines.
Members of the genus Exophiala are often difficult to identify to the species level because of their variable morphological appearances. This paper describes the methods used to identify Exophiala mesophila and provides salient differential features for distinguishing other mesophilic members of the genus.

The skin lesions responded well to appropriate antibiotic therapy. The organism may have been inoculated into the skin by the pecking action of the chickens. C....
