    Author: Gosselink C, Thomas J, Brahmbhatt S, Patel NK, Vindas J.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2008; 47(5):457-62. PubMed ID: 18725128.
    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: Madura foot is rarely encountered in clinical practice in the United States, and a recent review of the biomedical literature revealed only 24 cases reported worldwide since 1981. In this report, we describe the case of a patient who presented with an advanced pedal Nocardia mycetoma. Although this condition is not unheard of, we felt that the rarity of the condition warranted reporting. LEVEL OF CLINICAL EVIDENCE: 4.
