Neurosurgery, 1993
A 14-year-old girl with a rare form of fungal brain abscess involving the dura and brain parenchyma is reported. No portal of entry of the infection was found. Histological findings and fungal culture both indicated that the causative agent was Xylohypha bantiana, an uncommon dematiaceous fungus. A review of the literature suggests that this infection,

Subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis
Journal of Infection, 1993We report the case of a 13-year-old boy who presented with multiple swellings all over the body. His condition remained undiagnosed for over 3 years. Exophiala spinifera was recovered from pus drained from the swellings. We discuss the difficulties in the initial diagnosis and the ease of correct diagnosis once we had used special fungal stains.

Experimental phaeohyphomycosis
Mycoses, 1990SummaryThe authors performed an experimental infection of the rabbit eye with Wangiella dermatitidis which had been isolated from the corneal ulcer of a patient. The fungus was inoculated into the front chamber and the vitreous body. The disease showed a trend to spontaneous recovery. The individual phases of the experimental infection were followed by

International Journal of Dermatology, 2017
AbstractBackgroundPhaeohyphomycosis is an infrequent infection in human beings. However, in recent years, its prevalence has augmented in immunosuppressed patients (mostly in solid organ transplanted patients). Infection can be mucocutaneous or disseminated. In the former, the fungus inoculation occurs mainly through traumatism.

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2006
Phaeohyphomycosis is an uncommon infection, but has become increasingly recognized in a wide variety of clinical syndromes. Many species are associated with human infection, though a few are responsible for most cases. Because these are typically soil organisms and common laboratory contaminants, they are often disregarded from clinical specimens as ...

Dermatologic Clinics, 1996
Mycoses caused by dematiaceous (darkly pigmented) fungi are escalating in contemporary medicine. Such fungal infections are properly termed phaeohyphomycosis and are of increasing concern to dermatologists. A high index of suspicion, knowledge of clinical and laboratory presentations, enhanced mycologic attention, and an awareness of current ...

Mouse Models of Phaeohyphomycosis
2023Infections by dematiaceous fungi especially phaeohyphomycosis are an emerging group of infectious diseases worldwide with a variety of clinical presentations. The mouse model is a useful tool for studying phaeohyphomycosis, which can mimic dematiaceous fungal infections in humans.

Itraconazole treatment of phaeohyphomycosis
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1990Nineteen patients with phaeohyphomycosis were treated with itraconazole. Of these, 17 were assessable for clinical outcome. Of these, two had received no prior therapy, five had failed amphotericin B therapy, four had failed ketoconazole or miconazole therapy, and five had failed both amphotericin B and azole therapy.

Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis: Case report
Neuropathology, 2011Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis is a rare and frequently fatal disease. This disease is often caused by hematogenous spread of pathogens that are inoculated in the skin of the extremities after slight or minor trauma, and its mortality rate is rather high despite aggressive treatment. Our patient presented with headache and pyrexia.

Subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis (mycotic cyst)
Clinics in Dermatology, 2012Phaeohyphomycosis designates fungal infections caused by pheoid or melanized fungi and characterized histopathologically by the presence of septate hyphae, pseudohyphae, and yeasts. Etiologic agents include Exophiala, Phoma, Bipolaris, Phialophora, Colletotrichum, Curvularia, Alternaria, Exserohilum, and Phialemonium sp.
