MYCETOMA CAUSED BY MADURELLA MYCETOMII IN MADRAS

View through CrossRef
SummaryBiopsy specimens of 102 patients with mycetoma were examined histologically and Madurella mycetomii was found in 29 cases. Four cases of mycetoma pedis and a single case of mycetoma of the hand from which M. mycetomii has been isolated in culture are described. In all cases, the characteristic black granules were seen.The geographic distribution of the organism and its incidence and prevalence in India are discussed.
