The medical records of 28 horses with guttural pouch mycosis were reviewed. The most commonly observed clinical signs were nasal discharge, epistaxis, dysphagia and/or cough. All 28 horses had the disease unilaterally, however, in five of them, it had spread into the contralateral pouch via the mesial septum. Three horses were treated medically, 11 horses underwent surgery and seven horses were treated both medically and surgically. Fifty percent of horses (14/28) were euthanased or died, fifty percent of horses (14/28) survived. There was no significant correlation between treatment method (medical, surgical, combination) and survival rate. The most common reason for euthanasia was dysphagia due to pharyngeal dysfunction. There was a highly significant correlation between the presence of dysphagia and non-survival (p=0.008).

Arthrinium phaeospermum var. indicum Kan & Sullia was repeatedly isolated from erythematous nodules of a patient. Scrapings of the experimental infection developed on rabbits revealed fungal filaments and few spores similar to those of A. phaeospermum var. indicum. The identity of the pathogen is discussed and it is being reported for the first time from human being. In vitro sensitivity of A. phaeospermum var. indicum to miconazole nitrate exhibited a minimum inhibition concentration of 6.25 micrograms/ml.

BACKGROUND
fungal invasive infections are frequent in patients with immunosuppression. A common clinical feature is the presence of fever of unknown origin (FUO) in any of its several presentations. The aim of this study was to know the frequency of FUO associated to invasive mycosis in hospitalized patients.
METHODS
samples from 34 patients were studied by immunological and microbiological procedures in order to investigate candidiasis, cryptococcosis, aspergillosis and Pneumocystis infection.
RESULTS
fungal infection diagnosis was established in 12 (35 %) from 34 patients who full criterion. The fungal species isolated were Candida albicans (six), Aspergillus fumigates (four) and Cryptococcus sp. (two). All candidiasis cases were diagnosed only by microbiological studies, aspergillosis by immunological and microbiological studies, and cryptococcosis only by immunological studies.
CONCLUSIONS
we concluded that is important the searching of mycosis in immunocompromised patients with fever of unknown origin by microbiological and immunological procedures.

Infective penile gangrene is a rare but known complication of circumcision. The causes may vary from neutropenia, diabetes mellitus, and human immunodeficiency virus infection to lymphoproliferative malignancy. Penile mycosis leading to penile gangrene is a rare entity. Only 1 case has been reported in an adult. Juvenile diabetes mellitus is a peculiar predisposing factor for mycotic infections. We report a case of mycotic penile gangrene in a diabetic child to highlight its potentially preventable disastrous outcome.

During a period of 22 months, 9.7% (23 out of 238) of the cattle necropsied at the Department of Veterinary Pathology had mycotic affections in the stomach compartments. The various stomach compartments were affected in the following pattern: omasum: 15 cases, rumen: 10 cases, reticulum: 8 cases and abomasum: 6 cases. In 5 of the animals mycotic affection was also found in other organs of which the liver was most often involved. Out of the 23 cases described, a primary diagnosis of mycosis was only established in 5 cases. In the remaining 18 cases the mycotic infection was regarded as being of a minor importance in the total necropsy result. Macroscopically and histologically the mycotic processes could be grouped into acute, subacute or chronic affections. In 20 cases only one type of inflammation was present, in the remaining cases combinations were found. Identification of the infective agent was performed by immunological staining of hyphal structures in tissue sections. Members of the Zygomycetes were found to predominate as causative fungi. Aspergillus fumigatus was found to have a propensity for infecting the terminal gastric compartments, whereas the Zygomycetes were found regularly in all compartments. Candida spp. were only found in 1 case. Predisposing factors for developing systemic mycosis are discussed. Among these especially the use of antimicrobial drugs, other diseases, metabolic disturbances and stressors in the post parturient period seem to be important.
