Granulomatous Reactions Induced by Lipids Extracted from Fonsecaea pedrosoi, Fonsecaea compactum, Cladosporium carrionii and Phialophora verrucosum [PDF]

Microbiology, 1985
Granulomatous reactions induced by lipid extracts from the dermatophyte fungi Fonsecaea pedrosoi, Fonsecaea compactum, Cladosporium carrionii and Phialophora verrucosum, the causal organisms of chromoblastomycosis, were studied. Charcoal particles coated with the lipid extracts were prepared and injected intravenously into mice.

An Unusual Case of Onychomycosis Due to Fonsecaea Pedrosoi

Apollo Medicine, 2014
Abstract Onychomycosis is usually caused by dermatophytes, but some nondermatophytic molds and yeasts are also associated with invasion of nails. Here is a report of a case of distal and lateral subungual onychomycosis (DLSO) caused by Fonsecaea pedrosoi where it acts as primary agent of nail infection.
