Mycotic keratitis by Cladorrhinum
Medical Mycology, 1979Cladorrhinum spp (strain CBS 604.75) was isolated, for the first time, from a case of keratomycosis. The patient, a 12 year-old boy, showed a soft white yellowish mycotic excrescence with clear borders which had followed the introduction of a small piece of straw into the cornea. The direct examination of corneal scrapings revealed dark-brown filaments.
