Mixed cutaneous phaeohyphomycosis in a cocaine user

S R Lavoie et al. Clin Infect Dis. 1993 Jul.

Abstract

The dematiaceous fungi rarely cause serious disease in humans. We report a case of mixed cutaneous phaeohyphomycosis caused by two dematiaceous fungi, Exserohilum rostratum and Curvularia species, and review the microbiological characteristics and clinical significance of these organisms.
