    Area of Science:

    • Mycology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Dermatology

    Context:

    • While common deep mycoses like candidosis are well-known, numerous less frequent fungal infections exist globally.
    • These mycoses vary in prevalence, with some endemic to specific regions (e.g., South American blastomycosis in Brazil) and others cosmopolitan.
    • Certain fungal infections, such as mucormycosis, predominantly affect immunocompromised individuals.

    Purpose:

    • To provide an overview of less frequently described mycoses.
    • To highlight the geographical distribution and specific populations affected by these fungal infections.
    • To discuss recent therapeutic advancements and treatment modalities for various mycoses.

    Summary:

    • The abstract details various mycoses beyond the common ones, including endemic infections like South American blastomycosis and coccidioidomycosis, and cosmopolitan ones like sporotrichosis.

  • It notes the occurrence of basidiobolomycosis, rhinophycomycosis, dermatophytosis, sporotrichosis, and rhinosporidiosis in Africa.
  • Significant therapeutic progress has been made with amphotericin B and imidazole antifungals (miconazole, ketoconazole), with surgery being an option for chromomycosis and rhinosporidiosis.

    • Impact:

    • Enhances understanding of the spectrum of human fungal pathogens.
    • Informs clinicians about less common but potentially serious mycoses and their geographical distribution.
    • Highlights the importance of antifungal therapies and surgical interventions in managing challenging fungal infections.
