A five-year girl was referred to our centre with swelling over the right lower back. The child was evaluated to rule out chronic cutaneous tuberculosis, lymphoma and soft tissue tumor. Biopsy of the lesion on culture yielded species. Whole genome sequencing of the isolate identified it as . Sequencing of fungi pathogenic to humans which cannot be differentiated by conventional methods of speciation becomes essential to assign pathogenicity, understand epidemiology and resolve the nuances in the ever-evolving taxonomical classification.
一名五岁女童因右下腹肿胀被转诊至我们中心。对该患儿进行评估以排除慢性皮肤结核、淋巴瘤和软组织肿瘤。对病变进行活检培养后得到了某种菌种。对分离株进行全基因组测序后将其鉴定为……。对于那些无法通过传统分类方法区分的对人类致病的真菌进行测序，对于确定致病性、了解流行病学以及解决不断演变的分类学分类中的细微差别至关重要。
