Mycotic keratitis by Cladorrhinum

Abstract
Cladorrhinum sp. (strain CBS 604.75) was isolated, for the 1st time, from a case of keratomycosis. The patient, a 12 yr old boy, showed a soft white yellowish mycotic excrescence with clear borders which had followed the introduction of a small piece of straw into the cornea. The direct examination of corneal scrapings revealed dark-brown filaments. He was successfully treated with micronazole.
