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)

Actinomycetoma masquerading as an abdominal neoplasm
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1982Despite the fact that infection accompanying actinomycotic organisms is relatively rare, the possibility of such infection should be kept in mind because the organism is known to be commensal in the oral cavity, lungs, and intestinal tract. Abdominal lesions may mimic a neoplasm in many ways--physical findings, clinical course, and roentgenographic ...

Diagnostic procedures and rationale for treatment are discussed. In tropical and subtropical areas where mycetoma is endemic it should be included in the differential diagnosis of tumours of the facio-maxillary region.

Actinomycetoma caused by Nocardiopsis dassonvillei.
Archives of dermatology, 1985We report a case of mycetoma caused by Nocardiopsis dassonvillei in a 39-year-old man. He had multiple nodules and draining sinuses on the anterior aspect of his right leg just below the knee. Few cream-colored granules were seen in the exudate. The biopsy specimen showed gram-positive, non-acid-fast granules with distinct borders.
