Abstract

Bacterial Subcutaneous Infection: Actinomycetoma Caused by Mycetoma

Justine Gerardo*

Nodules, scars, abscesses, and fistulae drain serous or purulent material harbouring the etiological agent in mycetoma, a neglected tropical illness. True fungus (eumycetoma) or filamentous aerobic bacteria can cause mycetoma (actinomycetoma). In the so-called mycetoma belt, which includes Sudan, Nigeria, Somalia, India, Mexico, and Venezuela, mycetoma is more widespread. New antibiotics with fewer side effects, larger susceptibility profiles, and novel delivery routes have necessitated the gathering of data on actinomycetoma treatment and outcomes.
