Actinomycetoma caused by Rhodococcus spp.

L C Severo, V F Petrillo, L M Coutinho.   

Abstract

We report a case of mycetoma caused by Rhodococcus in a 62-year-old man who presented with multiple draining sinuses of the left foot. Biopsy specimen showed granulomatous reaction and microabcesses contained granules. These granules were composed by rod and coccoid Gram-positive and partially acid-fast elements. Culture grew a 'Nocardia-like organism', confirmed at the Center for Disease Control as Rhodococcus spp.
