ABSTRACT
Muyocopron laterale is a type of endophytic fungus that parasitizes monocotyledonous plants. Cases of humans and other mammals being infected by M. laterale are very rare around the world. We report the first case of subcutaneous mycosis caused by M. laterale in China. A kidney transplant recipient was admitted for Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia and subsequently developed left calf redness and swelling due to a M. laterale infection. The patient was treated with sulfamethoxazole and voriconazole and underwent five surgical debridements and vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) applications with the left leg. The patient was eventually cured and discharged from the hospital.
