Cytodiagnosis of actinomycetoma
Diagnostic Cytopathology, 2009AbstractMycetoma is a late clinical manifestation of a subcutaneous infection produced by bacteria (actinomycetoma) or fungi (eumycetoma). The distinction between eumycetoma and actinomycetoma in Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is as accurate as histopathology. A 55 year old man presented with a slow growing swelling on the plantar aspect of the

Microbial Pathogenesis
The development of experimental actinomycetoma in mice pioneered the study of infective mechanisms in nocardiosis. However, the understanding of lymphocyte activation in actinomycetoma remains incomplete. In this study, we used flow cytometry to evaluate

Actinomycetoma in the United States
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1981Actinomycetoma (Madura foot) caused by Actinomadura madurae occurred in an Indiana factory worker. Previous cases of culture-proven actinomycetoma from the United States and reports of drug therapy were reviewed. Treatment with sulfonamides, streptomycin, dapsone, and other antimicrobial agents has been effective. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMZ)

Giant grains of nocardia actinomycetoma
The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2010A 27-year-old woman presented to a tertiary centre for mycology in Mexico City, Mexico, with an 11-year history of progressive swelling and deformity of her right foot, and was no longer able to weight-bear. Clinically, there were draining sinuses and giant, white grains with a seropurulent discharge (fi gure, A). A radiograph of her foot showed marked
