Mycetoma fungal infection: multiple organisms as colonizers or pathogens?

Florian H Pilsczek1, Michael Augenbraun.   

Abstract

We describe a patient with mycetoma or Madura foot, in which histopathological stains of the bone and surface cultures suggested three different organisms including Nocardia species as the cause. Criteria for the diagnosis of the organisms, differentiation between colonizer and pathogen, and significance of mixed infections are discussed.
