Abstract

A subcutaneous granuloma developed in a C3H mouse ca. 5 months after sequential intravenous and intracerebral inoculation of Absidia corymbifera spores. A. corymbifera was demonstrated microscopically and culturally in the lesion. Infection is believed to have been secondary to fungal infection of the kidney. The histopathological features of the lesion are described.

Resume

Un granulome sous-cutané s'est développé chez une souris C3H environ 5 mois après une inoculation intraveineuse, suivie d'une inoculation intracérébrale, de spores d'Absidia corymbifera. On démontre la présence de A. corymbifera dans la lésion par l'examen microscopique et la culture. Il est vraisemblable que l'infection a été secondaire à une infection fongique du rein. On décrit les aspects histopathologiques de la lésion.
