case_images: The colonies had a macroscopic powdery aspect: they appeared sand-coloured in the central portion and showed a narrow white peripheral border (Figure 2A), while the reverse had a brown tint (Figure 2B). Microscopic evaluation was performed through methylene blue staining: abundant hyaline, multiseptate and fusiform thin-walled macroconidia were observed (Figure 2C) as well as hyaline and multiseptate hyphae; just few single-celled and clavate smooth-walled microconidia were noted.
case_images: Clinical course. (A) Three months and (B) 4 months after initiation of treatment.
