Abstract:

We are reporting a rare case of eumycetoma of a 17 year- old boy from rural India, who presented with history of swellings and multiple discharging sinuses of Right leg and foot for 6 months. The discharge was whitish in colour and contained soft, lobulated grains of diameter 1mm. Culture on Sabouraud dextrose agar showed growth of Scedosporiumapiospermum (asexual form of Pseudallescheriaboydii).
