  Opportunistic Mycoses Candidiasis Candidiasis (due to C albicans and other Candida spp.) is the most common opportunistic fungal infection. Candida albicans is the most common cause of candidiasis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Candidiasis. See separate Candidiasis article. This is normally associated with predisposing factors - eg, neutropenia, antibiotic use, indwelling lines and abdominal surgery. [patient.info]

• Inflammation

  Low dose prednisone or its equivalent can be maintained to control hepatic inflammation during vigorous antifungal therapy without jeopardizing cure of the fungal infection. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  General symptoms of illness may include: Fever Cough Loss of appetite Lungs Invasive lung mycoses typically result in a progressive dry cough, shortness of breath, pain when taking a deep breath and fever. [dermnetnz.org]

  The lesion is mildly painful with no signs of systemic illness such as fever. Later on, new lesions begin to appear along the line of lymphatic tracts of the body. [lecturio.com]

  Painful ulcerations and nodules appear in subcutaneous tissues in sporotrichosis ( Sporothrix ). In systemic fungal infections fungi may invade normal hosts or immunosuppressed hosts (opportunistic infections). [britannica.com]

  Symptoms include cough, fever, dyspnoea and chest pain. It may resolve or progress with bloody, purulent sputum, pleurisy, fever, chills, loss of weight and prostration. [patient.info]

  Systemic mycosis can cause chronic fatigue, pain in the muscles or joints, headaches, and mental fog. Typically, these types of infections only happen to people who already have a weakened immune system. [fibromyalgiatreating.com]

  Disseminated sporotrichosis exhibit symptoms depending on the body part involved such as joint pain caused by infection in the joint and difficulty in thinking, headache and seizures caused by infection in the central nervous system. [lecturio.com]

• Microsporum

  Superficial fungal infections, also called dermatophytosis, are confined to the skin and are caused by Microsporum, Trichophyton, or Epidermophyton; athlete’s foot, for example, is caused by Trichophyton or Epidermophyton. [britannica.com]

  Fungi which commonly cause cutaneous mycoses belong to the Microsporum, Trichophyton, and Epidermophyton genuses, comprising 41 species in total. Subcutaneous mycoses can involve all layers of the skin and tissue such as fat and muscle underneath. [medic8.com]

  About thirty different species of the genera Epidermophyton, Microsporum, and Trichophyton (collectively known as dermatophytes) cause infections commonly known as athlete’s foot, jock itch, and ringworm. [innvista.com]

  There are three genera of dermatophytes, all of which can cause cutaneous mycoses: Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, and Microsporum. [courses.lumenlearning.com]

  Whereas, Microsporum spp. infect hair and skin, but do not involve nails. Trichophyton spp. may infect hair, skin, and nails. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Trichophyton Rubrum

  Trichophyton rubrum and T. mentagrophytes are the dermatophytes that cause athelete’s foot. Malassezia furfur causes a type of dandruff, as well as an infection known as Pityriasis versicolor (formerly Pityrosporum ovale and P. orbiculare ). [innvista.com]

Because candidiasis can become invasive, patients suffering from HIV/AIDS, cancer, or other conditions that compromise the immune system may benefit from preventive treatment. [courses.lumenlearning.com]

Prevention and follow-up There is no vaccine for prevention of sporotrichosis. Sporotrichosis can be prevented with the use of gloves and long sleeves while doing outdoor activities such as gardening. [lecturio.com]
