Abstract

Phaeohyphomycosis, a worldwide fungal infection, refers to uncommon superficial, subcutaneous, or systemic infections caused by melanized fungi. Currently, about 70 genera and 150 species have been described. It can be confirmed by mycological, histopathological, or molecular methods. Treatment can be performed by surgery or systemic antifungals.
