Curvularia lunata: a rare cause of black-grain eumycetoma.

Curvularia lunata is a dematiaceous fungus that rarely causes cutaneous infections in immunocompetent humans. We describe a case of mycetoma pedis caused by Curvularia lunata in a 50-year-old woman from a rural farming community who had prolonged morbidity due to diagnostic delay. She improved with antifungal therapy, showing a satisfactory clinical response after 12 months of treatment.
