Onychomycosis with Aspergillus flavus;
A case report from IranAli Zarei Mahmoudabadi & Majid Zarrin
Abstract:
A 60-year-old woman who had no underlying disease was examined for fungal fingernails infection. Direct DMSO/KOH preparations from nail clippings revealed hyaline septate branching mycelium with conidiophores, phialide and conidia. Diagnosis was confirmed by cultures from samples, which repeatedly yielded several colonies of Aspergillus flavus.
Key words: Onychomycosis, Aspergillus flavus.
