Abstract

Most elements of filamentous fungi seen in human tissue by pathologists are hyphae, and encountering other elements may interfere with diagnosis. Sporangia and chlamydospores are such elements that have been described in only a few case reports. We present an autopsy case with the extremely rare coexistence of Mucorales sporangia and chlamydospores in the lung. These fungal elements must be recognized and identified accurately because they can easily be mistaken for other fungi, microorganisms, or degenerated tissue structures.

在组织中发现罕见的粘孢子菌孢子囊和衣孢子。

病理学家在人体组织中看到的丝状真菌的大多数成分都是菌丝，遇到其他成分可能会影响诊断。孢子囊和衣壳孢子就是这样的成分，只有少数病例报告中描述过。我们介绍了一例尸检病例，其肺部同时存在粘菌孢子囊和衣孢子囊的情况极为罕见。必须准确识别和鉴定这些真菌成分，因为它们很容易被误认为是其他真菌、微生物或退化的组织结构。

期刊介绍： Pathology International is the official English journal of the Japanese Society of Pathology, publishing articles of excellence in human and experimental pathology. The Journal focuses on the morphological study of the disease process and/or mechanisms. For human pathology, morphological investigation receives priority but manuscripts describing the result of any ancillary methods (cellular, chemical, immunological and molecular biological) that complement the morphology are accepted. Manuscript on experimental pathology that approach pathologenesis or mechanisms of disease processes are expected to report on the data obtained from models using cellular, biochemical, molecular biological, animal, immunological or other methods in conjunction with morphology. Manuscripts that report data on laboratory medicine (clinical pathology) without significant morphological contribution are not accepted.
