Endotracheal Actinomycosis Combined With Mucormycosis: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Respirol Case RepWe report a case of endobronchial pulmonary actinomycosis complicated with mucormycosis. ABSTRACT Actinomycosis and mucormycosis are rare infections, and their coexistence in a single host is extremely uncommon. Actinomycosis of the trachea is a chronic septic condition caused by actinomycete infection, often misdiagnosed due to the difficulty of ...
