Mycetoma is a form of chronic granulomatous disease which involves subcutaneous tissues and causes bone destruction in advanced stages. The characteristic features are sinus formation, granules formation, and mass in subcutaneous region.
A 19-year-old male presented to our out-patient clinic with complaint of a painless swelling around the medial aspect of the right knee joint for 8 months with no sinus or discharge of granules. Pes anserinus bursitis was thought of as differential diagnosis for the present condition. "Staging-classification of mycetoma" is commonly used for classifying mycetoma and as per classification, the present case had Stage-A.
Single-stage local excision was performed and supplemented with anti-fungal agent for 6 months, which showed good outcome at the final follow-up of 13 months.
足菌肿是一种慢性肉芽肿性疾病,累及皮下组织,晚期可导致骨质破坏。其特征性表现为窦道形成、颗粒形成以及皮下肿块。
一名19岁男性因右膝关节内侧无痛性肿胀8个月就诊于我院门诊,无窦道或颗粒排出。鹅足滑囊炎被考虑为本病的鉴别诊断。“足菌肿分期分类”常用于足菌肿的分类,根据该分类,本病例为A期。
行单阶段局部切除,并辅以抗真菌药物治疗6个月,在13个月的最终随访中显示出良好的效果。
