Mycotic keratitis by Drechslera spicifera
Sabouraudia.
1975 Nov.
Abstract
The Drechslera state of Cochiobolus spicifer, Nelson 1964, was isolated from a case of keratomycosis. The patient, a 19 year old man, showed a large corneal ulcer with hypopyon associated with the introduction of dust. The direct examination of several scrapings revealed dark-brown hyphae. This species has been reported as a casual agent of a nodular granulomatous mass in the foot of a cat and in the skin of a horse.
