Cokeromyces recurvatus in a Papanicolaou test: An exceedingly rare finding that can be mistaken for Paracoccidioides brasiliensis

Its morphology closely resembles that of the better known Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, which can disseminate widely and cause clinically significant disease. We present a case of C. recurvatus detected in a cervical liquid-based ...
متن کاملCokeromyces recurvatus, a mucoraceous zygomycete rarely isolated in clinical laboratories.
Cokeromyces recurvatus Poitras was isolated from an endocervical specimen obtained from a 37-year-old, insulin-dependent diabetic. The patient's diabetic condition had been well controlled for 10 years, and she had no other known medical problem.

In our survey, for which we used the familiar picture of a Dalmatian dog against a dappled background, (i) 75% of subjects initially found a bulging body which ...

متن کاملParacoccidioides brasiliensis AND Paracoccidioides lutzii, A SECRET LOVE AFFAIR
To commemorate Prof. Carlos da Silva Lacaz's centennial anniversary, the authors have written a brief account of a few, out of hundreds, biological, ecological, molecular and phylogenetic studies that led to the arrival of Paracoccidioides lutzii, hidden for more than a century within Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. Lacaz's permanent interest in this fungus, and particularly his conviction on th...
