more
Mycetoma, or Madura Foot, is an important disease in arid and semi-arid regions around the globe. It is found in Brazil, Mexico, the Sahel, in pan-Arabia, and in semi-arid areas of India. It is found as far north as Romania.
There are two known forms of mycetoma. The two forms of mycetoma are bacterial mycetoma and fungal mycetoma: bacterial mycetoma is known as actinomycetoma while the fungal form is called eumycetoma. Even at the level of electron microscopy the two forms of mycetoma are difficult to distinguish from one another.
