Shigemura T et al. – The authors describe the first case of CGD with femoral osteomyelitis due to Cladophialophora arxii, which is a member of the dematiaceous group. The causative fungus was identified on the basis of its morphological characteristics, growth temperature profile, and nucleotide sequence on the internal transcribed space region of the ribosomal gene. The patient was successfully treated with surgical debridement, subsequent administration of itraconazolem and interferon–gamma.
