Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis caused byFonsecaea monophora [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2005 We report a case of cerebral phaeohyphomycosis in a 53-year-old immunocompetent diabetic male, caused by Fonsecaea monophora. Computerized tomography of the brain revealed an abscess, which yielded F. monophora in pure culture. The patient's condition deteriorated on treatment with voriconazole and 5-fluorocytosine, and improved subsequently with high ...

Feline cerebral phaeohyphomycosis associated with Cladosporium bantianurn [PDF]
Australian Veterinary Journal, 1985 The brain of an 18-month-old cat that died after developing incoordination and circling had massive hyphal invasion, inflammatory cells, reactive neuroglial cells and liquefactive necrosis. Culture on Sabouraud's dextrose agar at 28 deg yielded a greyish black, velvety fungus with long chains of yellow-brown, oval to elliptical conidia.

Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis: a rare cause of brain abscess. [PDF]
J Korean Neurosurg Soc, 2014 Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis (CP) is a very rare but serious form of central nervous system fungal infection that is caused by dematiaceous fungi. It is commonly associated with poor prognosis irrespective of the immune status of the patient. In this study, the authors describe the first case of CP in Korea that occurred in a 75-year-old man without ...

CEREBRAL PHAEOHYPHOMYCOSIS DUE TO CLADOPHIALOPHORA BANTIANA
Indian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2008 Cladophialophora bantiana, a dematiaceous fungus and a member of the family Phaeohyphomycetes, is primarily a neurotropic fungus causing central nervous system (CNS) infection. We report a case of a well preserved, young adult male presenting with a capsuloganglionic abscess caused by C. bantiana, a rare entity. Diagnosis was made based on the mycology
