Actinomycetoma with negative culture: a therapeutic challenge
Dermatology Online Journal, 2008 Nocardia, Actinomyces, and Streptomyces species comprise the three broad classes of organisms that are causative for bacterial mycetoma. Although culture and molecular laboratory studies can usually identify the precise etiologic agent in bacterial mycetoma, occasionally these methods fail to clarify this situation. We report a classic clinical case of

A diagnostic challenge of tongue botryomycosis miming mycetoma—A case report
Skin Health and Disease, Volume 4, Issue 5, October 2024.Botryomycosis, an infrequent bacterial infection, was unexpectedly identified as the aetiology behind the patient's tongue lesion. Botryomycosis mimics mycetoma clinically, which is common among infectious diseases. Therefore, healthcare providers should be more exhaustive during the differential diagnosis.
