Mycetoma

MYCETOMA or Madura Foot (as popular name)
Mycetoma is a painless swelling caused by infection from Eumycetes becoming matted together with soft body tissues. The fungus often enters the body with a thorn, and legions are common on the legs and feet giving rise to its popular name of Madura Foot.

And also: Eumycetoma

Mycetoma refers to disease caused either by true fungi (eumycetomas) or by aerobic actinomycetes (actinomycetomas). Farmers are among the most likely to get cutaneous mycetoma, which can present as a firm swelling of the affected site, with abscesses and fistula.

\"Purulent exudates that drain from the abscesses and fistula contain the granules of the infecting organism,\" Dr. Welsh says.

True fungi (eumycetes) that commonly cause eumycetoma include Scedosporium apiospermum, Madurella mycetomatis, Madurella grisea and Acremonium spp. Terbinafine and triazoles are standard treatments for eumycetoma, often combined with surgery of the infecting tissue in refractory cases.

\"In isolated cases, posaconazole and voriconazole have been reported to be beneficial,\" Dr. Welsh adds.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Muriel Vasconcellos : Mycetoma is an entirely different disease. It often starts in the flesh of the foot, from stepping on something, but it can also start in the leg or hand -- any major pressure point. It's invasive and very yucky. (Mycoses are my specialty.)

Usted tiene toda la razón! me fijé unicamente en la palabra eucomicotas y por eso me equivoqué. Para mi la respuesta correcta es la de Daniel. Pensaba rectificar mi respuesta esta mañana pero acaba Usted de hacerlo con el disagree. Gracias, Muriel :-)
