In this article, we describe a chronic case of rhinofacial mucormycosis caused by Mucor irregularis, formerly known as Rhizomucor variabilis var. variabilis, a rare mycotic agent in humans. The infection caused progressive destruction of the nasal septum and soft and hard palate, leading to collapse of the nose bridge and an ulcerative gaping hole. The mucoralean mold cultured from a nasal biopsy specimen was determined by multilocus DNA sequence data to be conspecific with M. irregularis.
在这篇文章中,我们描述了一例由不规则毛霉(以前称为多变根毛霉多变变种)引起的慢性鼻面部毛霉病,这是一种人类罕见的真菌病原体。感染导致鼻中隔和软硬腭进行性破坏,导致鼻梁塌陷和溃疡性大穿孔。从鼻活检标本中培养出的毛霉通过多位点 DNA 序列数据确定与不规则毛霉同属。
