Abstract excerpt

We report the first case of chromoblastomycosis caused by a meristematic mutant of Fonsecaea monophora in an 81-year-old Cantonese male. The patient had a seven-month history of a red plaque with thick yellow crust and purulent exudates on the back of his right hand. Microscopic examination of direct smears revealed brown sclerotic cells and black colonies were recovered in culture from samples of the purulent...
