Abstract

Acrophialophora fusispora is a soil-borne fungus, which is emerging as a human pathogen. Only four cases of human infection had been described previously. We describe three more cases, two from Europe and one from India. Since this fungus has been misidentified in several other cases, it is probably more frequent than first thought.
