During the last 5 years six cases of mycetoma have been referred to the Razi Hospital, Thehran. Nocardia Asteroides was found to be the causative agent in one case only. Five of the patients were males, all being rice farmers, and one was a female. All of them belonged to Northern Iran which has a mediterranean climate. Treatment of the condition still remains unsatisfactory and ineffective and amputation may have to be performed as a last resort.
在过去5年里，有6例足菌肿病例转诊至德黑兰的拉齐医院。仅在1例病例中发现星形诺卡菌为病原体。患者中有5名男性，均为稻农，1名女性。他们都来自伊朗北部，那里属于地中海气候。该病症的治疗仍然不尽人意且效果不佳，作为最后手段可能不得不进行截肢。
