Infectious Diseases and Microbiology - Lobomycosis ( Loboa loboi)
Lobomycosis
Caused by Loboa loboi, lobomycosis is frequently linked to a traumatic agent injection. Dolphins naturally contract L loboi.
Hard, painless nodules (keloids) on the face, ears, and upper extremities are a hallmark of lobomycosis.
Lesions of mycetoma and chromoblastomycosis are comparable to those of lobstermycosis. Upon direct microscopic inspection of removed tissue in a KOH solution, lengthy diagnostic chains of yeast cells are visible.
For lobomycosis, surgical excision is curative.
