Possible Causes for Fusarium

Fusarium Infection

Fusarium infection or fusariosis refers to an infection with fungal species of the genus Fusarium. [symptoma.com]

Infections caused by Fusarium species are increasing in frequency among immunocompromised hosts. We identified 35 patients with cancer who had Fusarium skin lesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The fungal elements in the cutaneous tissues were suggested to be Fusarium by an immunoperoxidase method using a genus-specific anti-Fusarium antibody. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Keratitis

KEYWORDS: Amphotericin B; Fusarium dimerum; Fusarium dimerum species complex; Fusarium penzigii; Keratitis; Voriconazole [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Which Fusarium species cause these infections? [jcm.asm.org]

Fusarium keratoplasticum (n = 7), Fusarium falciforme (n = 2) and Fusarium sporotrichioides (n = 1). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Onychomycosis

Fusarium species have emerged as an important human pathogen in skin disease, onychomycosis, keratitis and invasive disease. Onychomycosis caused by Fusarium spp. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

CONCLUSION: Propolis extract can be an alternative topical treatment of onychomycosis caused by Fusarium spp. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Fusarium spp and other NDMs are largely resistant to commonly used anti-fungals. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Hypopyon Ulcer

Corneal culures did grow Fusarium species. [eyerounds.org]

Fusarium spp and Aspergillus spp are common in tropical and subtropical eastern countries and southern US [ 4 ]. [omicsonline.org]

Corneal Ulcer

The spectrum of fungi isolated were Fusarium species (Fusarium spp.) in 219 (31.9 %), followed by unidentified dematiaceous 151 (22 %), curvularia 122 (17.7 %) and unidentified [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Four of 12 non-responding eyes were caused by Fusarium species. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Fusarium (n = 126) and Aspergillus species (n = 52) were the most commonly isolated organisms. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Endophthalmitis

Three cases of endophthalmitis due to Fusarium solani and Fusarium oxysporum, diagnosed in 2009, 2010, and 2014 in patients from two different health regions belonging to [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract Fusarium spp. are an uncommon cause of fungaemia in immunocompromised and neutropenic patients that may hematogenously disseminate to the eyes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Central Corneal Ulcer

This slit-lamp video shows a large, central corneal ulcer that was caused by fusarium fungus. [timroot.com]

In infection by fungi, treatment is topical instillation of natamycin for Fusarium, Cephalosporium, and Candida. Questions What is the cause of the ulcer? [healthcentral.com]

Besides bacterial infection, other causes of corneal ulcers are fungi and parasites, such as: Fusarium. [allaboutvision.com]

Fungal Keratitis

No adventitious sporulation was detected in Fusarium spp ulcers. Dichotomous branching was detected in 11 ulcers (7 Aspergillus spp, 4 Fusarium spp). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

PURPOSE: To report a difficult-to-identify case of keratitis due to Fusarium solani, diagnosed with the help of exhaustive gene analysis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Fusarium keratitis is not transmitted from person to person. [cdc.gov]

Dermatomycosis

Candida albicans, Fusarium solani and Aspergillus flavus required relatively higher concentrations of amorolfine to inhibit their growth (MIC 0.125-64 microg ml(-1), MIC(50 [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The presence of non-dermatophytic fungi, i.e, Fusarium spp. and Exophiala spp. was reported in this study. [ijdvl.com]

Remaining 22 isolates included Alternaria spp, Stemphylium spp, Fusarium spp, Curvularia spp, Chrysoporium spp etc (Table 4). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
