Niclosamide Is Active In Vitro against Mycetoma Pathogens

Molecules, 2021
Redox-active drugs are the mainstay of parasite chemotherapy. To assess their repurposing potential for eumycetoma, we have tested a set of nitroheterocycles and peroxides in vitro against two isolates of Madurella mycetomatis, the main causative agent ...

In Vitro Susceptibility of Madurella mycetomatis to Posaconazole and Terbinafine [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2011
ABSTRACT Presently, therapy of eumycetoma in Sudan is still based on surgery combined with prolonged ketoconazole therapy. This usually results in a poor clinical outcome. To determine if posaconazole and terbinafine could offer better therapeutic alternatives, the in vitro susceptibilities of 34

Mycetoma foot due to Madurella mycetomatis

Annals of Tropical Medicine and Public Health, 2012
Mycetoma is chronic granulomatous infection. The causative agents are fungi and bacteria. We report a case of mycetoma in 19-years-old college student having history of thorn prick on left foot. Madurella mycetomatis was isolated from the granular discharge from sinuses surgical debridement with intralesional amphotericn therapy was given.
