DOI: 10.1016/j.abd.2020.09.008
Abstract: The detection of muriform cells in direct mycological or anatomopathological examination is considered pathognomonic for chromoblastomycosis. The morphological aspect that these fungal structures acquire were called “Borelli spiders”, when associated with hyphae. Reports of this… read more here.
