Phaeohyphomycosis in kidney transplant patients
Clinical Transplantation, 1999Dematiaceous fungi are being increasingly recognized as pathogens in organ transplant recipients. This investigation reports five cases of subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis that occurred in five kidney transplant recipients in the Renal Unit at the San Vicente de Paul Hospital, Medellin, Colombia. Fungi of the genus Exophiala were isolated in three cases,

Curvularia lunata in experimental phaeohyphomycosis
Mycopathologia, 1981Curvularia lunata strain SP, isolated from a disseminated human infection, infected normal mice, but three other strains of C. lunata and one each of C. pallescens and C. spicifera did not. The SP strain was recovered in cultures from, and hyphal filaments were observed in, abscesses in the liver and spleen of experimentally infected mice.

Molds: Hyalohyphomycosis, Phaeohyphomycosis, and Zygomycosis
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2009Emerging fungi previously thought to be nonpathogenic are now recognized as playing a significant role in the increased incidence of invasive fungal disease. This change in the epidemiology of invasive fungal infections (IFIs) has occurred in the era of aggressive new therapies for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and other malignancies that ...

Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis—a cure at what lengths?
The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2009Cerebral phaeohyphomycosis is a fungal infection of the brain typically caused by Cladophialophora bantiana, Exophiala dermatitidis, and Rhinocladiella mackenziei, all of which belong to the order Chaetothyriales. The disease results in black, necrotic brain tissue, black pus, and black cerebrospinal fluid. Pathogens usually reach the brain through the
