Mycetoma is a chronic granulomatous disease, classified into eumycetoma caused by fungi and actinomycetoma due to aerobic filamentous actinomycetes. Mycetoma can be found in geographic areas near the Tropic of Cancer. Mexico is one of the countries in which actinomycetoma is endemic. We report an extraordinary case of an adult male with double eumycetoma caused by Madurella mycetomatis and Fusarium verticillioides on both feet.
足菌肿是一种慢性肉芽肿性疾病,分为由真菌引起的真菌性足菌肿和由需氧丝状放线菌引起的放线菌性足菌肿。足菌肿可见于北回归线附近的地理区域。墨西哥是放线菌性足菌肿流行的国家之一。我们报告了一例罕见病例,一名成年男性双脚患有由马杜拉分支菌和轮枝镰孢菌引起的双重真菌性足菌肿。
