Invasive Fungal Diseases in Africa: A Critical Literature Review [PDF]
Journal of Fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 2022 Invasive fungal diseases (IFDs) are of huge concern in resource-limited settings, particularly in Africa, due to the unavailability of diagnostic armamentarium for IFDs, thus making definitive diagnosis challenging.

Disseminated Emergomycosis in a Person with HIV Infection, Uganda [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 We describe emergomycosis in a patient in Uganda with HIV infection. We tested a formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded skin biopsy to identify Emergomyces pasteurianus or a closely related pathogen by sequencing broad-range fungal PCR amplicons.

Endemic mycoses in South Africa, 2010–2020: A decade-long description of laboratory-diagnosed cases and prospects for the future [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022 Background Emergomycosis, histoplasmosis, sporotrichosis and blastomycosis are endemic to southern Africa; the first two are AIDS-related mycoses. We described laboratory-diagnosed cases of endemic and imported mycoses in South Africa over a decade and ...
