Mycoses imported from the West Indies. A report of three cases

R J Hay. Postgrad Med J. 1979 Sep.

Abstract

There have been isolated case reports of deep fungal infections from the Caribbean area but little is known about the distribution of mycoses there. Three cases, one of mycetoma, one of chromomycosis, one of histoplasmosis, are described. Their management and the advantages and disadvantages of treatment outside the area of origin are discussed.
