pubmed-article:8555041 | pubmed:abstractText | A 63-year-old man with a history of myeloblastic-monocytic leukaemia developed partly suppurating cutaneous nodules on the lower left leg. The nodules proceeded to spread in a linear fashion up the limb, following the line of the lymphatic drainage. Mycological examination of a skin biopsy demonstrated Scedoporium apiospermum. This case highlights the potential for Scedosporium species to act as opportunistic infections in immunosuppressed humans. | lld:pubmed |
