Abstract

This paper reports a further eighty cases of subcutaneous phycomycosis infection in Uganda seen between 1967 and 1974. This brings the number of reported cases from this country to over 140 and indicates an unusual frequency. The infection is more common in certain northern areas but does not appear to be confined to one ecological area. Suggestions are made as to possible factors in the initiation of this unusual infection.

摘要

本文报告了1967年至1974年间在乌干达发现的另外80例皮下藻菌病感染病例。这使该国报告的病例数超过了140例，显示出异常高的发病率。这种感染在某些北部地区更为常见，但似乎并不局限于某一生态区域。文中对引发这种异常感染的可能因素提出了一些建议。
