| [pulmonary allescheriosis (author's transl)]. | in a patient properly treated for a previous cavitary tuberculosis, we had the surprise, after hemoptyses, to find a sleigh-bell shaped picture suggesting an intra-cavitary aspergilloma with a very special mycosis with allescheria boydii. proof was provided by the presence of the fungus in direct examination and in culture in bronchial secretions. surgical exeresis did not cure the patient and a secondary recurrence appeared on which antifungal drugs were ineffective. antigens were made from the ... | 1979 | 572967 |
| corneal monosporiosis. a review and report of 1 case. | reviewing the world literature and including some personal communications and our own case, we have found 14 cases of keratomycosis by monosporium apiospermum or by its perfect state petrillidium (allescheria) boydii. a table with only the 12 well-documented observations was prepared. | 1979 | 314080 |
| humoral response to experimental petriellidiosis. | the humoral antibody response elicited by experimental infection with petriellidium boydii and monosporium apiospermum was studied. the variables of fungus strain, route of inoculation, and concentration of inoculum were examined. viable spores from three strains of p. boydii and from three strains of m. apiospermum were inoculated intravenously into mice. serum specimens were tested for antibody by the microtiter indirect hemagglutination assay. at 4 weeks after infection, the percentage of pos ... | 1979 | 112059 |
| pulmonary infection with petriellidium boydii. | a 52-year-old woman with pulmonary involvement with petriellidium boydii in a bronchiectatic lung segment is described. pulmonary involvement with this organism has been most frequently described in patients with underlying systemic diseases or compromised immune systems. this patient apparently had neither problem and was normal in all other aspects. surgical resection was done to avoid local pulmonary parenchymal invasion or dissemination of this fungus. the patient is now in good health two y ... | 1979 | 432688 |
| deep infections from petriellidium boydii treated with miconazole. | infections due to the fungus petriellidium boydii, particularly deep infections, are being reported with increased frequency. the organism generally is resistant to antifungal agents. three patients were treated with miconazole, a new drug demonstrated to be active in vitro against the fungus. miconazole alone was effective in treating two patients. the third patient showed an excellent therapeutic result with concomitant surgery. this experience confirms the in vitro results and suggests the ut ... | 1979 | 758531 |
| disseminated petriellidium boydii and pacemaker endocarditis. | clinical and morphologic findings are described in a 62 year old woman with "mixed connective tissue disease" who received corticosteroid therapy, and in whom disseminated and fatal petriellidium boydii infection with right-sided endocarditis developed. the patient was a gardener. the organism is ubiquitous in soil in many part of the united states; therefore, it is likely that the infection was introduced by this means. endocarditis due to p. boydii has not been reported previously. in the pati ... | 1980 | 7192491 |
| petriellidium boydii infection of the sphenoid sinus. | petriellidium boydii infection of the sphenoid sinus in a previously healthy woman was initially diagnosed by immunofluorescent staining of biopsy tissue sections. the diagnosis was confirmed by demonstrating p. boydii precipitins in serum and by isolating the infecting fungus. despite surgical drainage and intensive therapy with miconazole nitrate, the outcome, because of intracranial extension, was fatal. | 1980 | 7446495 |
| susceptibility of zoopathogenic fungi to phytoalexins. | phytoalexins are a group of low-molecular-weight antibiotics produced by higher plants in response to infection by relatively avirulent microorganisms. they are of relatively low toxicity for mammalian cells and have been reported to possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against bacteria and phytopathogenic fungi. employing a broth dilution technique, we have found the zoopathogens petriellidium boydii, aspergillus flavus, a. fumigatus, candida albicans, coccidioides immitis, crypto ... | 1980 | 7387136 |
| chronic mucocutaneous candidosis and other superficial and systemic mycoses successfully treated with ketoconazole. | four patients with chronic mucocutaneous candidosis from early infancy were treated successfully with ketoconazole given orally. all thrush lesions were clinically and mycologically cured within a few days of treatment with 100-400 micrograms of ketoconazole daily; skin lesions were cured within a few weeks, and nails were cured after about three months of treatment. delayed cutaneous hypersensitivity to candidin was acquired by the third month. cellular and humoral immunologic responses were re ... | 1980 | 6255540 |
| annellated conidiogenous cells in petriellidium boydii (scedosporium apiospermum). | annellated conidiogenous cells of both the mononematous (scedosporium state) and synnematous (graphium state) conidiophores develop in the conidial state of petriellidium (= allescheria) boydii, scedosporium (= monosporium) apiospermum. conidiogenesis in this species is characterized by percurrent proliferation of the conidiogenous cells and the conidia are holoblastic and annellidic. | 1980 | 7455859 |
| a survey of fungi and some indicator bacteria in chlorinated water of indoor public swimming pools. | fifty-four water samples, of volume 500 ml, originating from six public indoor fresh water swimming pools were examined for the presence of fungi and some indicator bacteria by a membrane-filter method. sabouraud-dextrose agar and selective candida albicans-medium were used for isolation and identification of fungi. in all but one of the samples the free chlorine content was above 0.40 mg/l. no candida albicans were detected. molds and unidentified yeasts were isolated from 29 of the samples. th ... | 1981 | 7304014 |
| development of maduromycosis (madurella mycetomi) after nailing of a closed tibial fracture: a case report. | maduromycosis is a rare fungal infection in the northern united states, most frequently caused by allescheria boydii, usually in debilitated or immunosuppressed patients. an 18-year-old mexican-american, in excellent health, developed multiple draining sinuses at the sites of insertion of ender nails for a closed tibial fracture. madurella mycetomi was cultured from black granules in a biopsy specimen. the source of fungal infection remained unknown, although it probably did not occur during the ... | 1981 | 7471560 |
| infections in hairy cell leukemia (leukemic reticuloendotheliosis). | of 22 patients with hairy cell leukemia, 18 developed life-threatening infections. susceptibility to infection appeared to be increased nonspecifically, in that a wide range of infecting organisms were noted. pseudomonas aeruginosa was the organism isolated most frequently. four patients had disseminated mycobacterium kansasii, and one had bacillus calmette-guerin lymphadenitis. two patients developed serious fungal infections (candida albicans in one and allescheria boydii in the other). one pa ... | 1981 | 7226028 |
| human sex hormones stimulate the growth and maturation of coccidioides immitis. | because men and pregnant women show increased susceptibility to extrapulmonary dissemination of coccidioidomycosis, studies were conducted to determine the direct effect of human sex hormones and related compounds on the growth and maturation of coccidioides immitis in vitro. 17 beta-estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone were highly stimulatory for the parasitic phase of c. immitis growth whereas cholesterol, ergosterol, and 17 alpha-estradiol (a physiologically inactive stereoisomer of 17 b ... | 1981 | 7251153 |

| maduromycosis "allescheria boydii" septic arthritis of the knee: a case report. | septic arthritis due to fungal agents is rare in temperate climates such as the united states, and maduromycosis due to auescheria boydii is especially uncommon. of the 21 previously reported cases, only two involved the knee j'oint. reported here is a case of allescheria hoyan infection of the left knee of a 5-yearold girl, with eventual successful cure by a combination of surgical synovectomy and amphotericin b chemotherapy. | 1981 | 24823095 |
| [autochthonous mycetoma caused by petriellidium boydii (author's transl)]. | a case of authochthonous mycetoma with petriellidium boydii as the causal agent, located in the third distal of the lower left leg is reported. the patient was a 35 year old male without any associated pathology. it is assumed that the infecting organism entered the tissues through a lesion caused a few years previously during a traffic accident. on admittance patient was found to have two fistulas on the upper part of the external malleolus from which pus with small yellow granules measuring 1 ... | 1981 | 7199107 |
| maxillary sinus infection with allescheria boydii (petriellidium boydii). | allescheria boydii (petriellidium boydii) has previously been described as a cause of madura foot and pulmonary and other visceral infections. this report describes infection of the maxillary sinus and facial soft tissue with a. boydii in a compromised host. the infection did not respond to antibiotics, including amphotericin b and 5-fluorocytosine. miconazole was not used in our patient, although in vitro data obtained after death indicated sensitivity of the fungus to miconazole. | 1981 | 273711 |

| fungal arthritis simulating juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. | petriellidium boydii is often isolated from maduromycosis but has recently been associated with arthritis. a previously healthy 6-year-old boy developed chronic purulent arthritis of the knee after a bicycle accident. culture of aspirate grew no pathogens and antibiotic treatment had no effect. culture of synovial fluid grew p boydii, which responded initially to amphotericin but reappeared after six months. subsequent treatment with miconazole was stopped after development of haematuria. the fu ... | 1982 | 6288166 |
| near-drowning complicated by brain abscess due to petriellidium boydii. | extracutaneous infection from petriellidium boydii is an unusual occurrence despite the ubiquity of the organism in nature. central nervous system infection by this organism is extremely rare, only seven previous reports having been found. the rarity of this manifestation prompted the report of a brain abscess occurring in a previously healthy youth after a near-drowning. the source of the infection was likely to have been the river water at the accident site, from which p boydii was isolated. a ... | 1982 | 7103801 |
