    Author: Gené J, Azón-Masoliver A, Guarro J, Ballester F, Pujol I, Llovera M, Ferrer C.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1995 Oct; 33(10):2774-6. PubMed ID: 8567925.
    Abstract:
    Alternaria longipes was reported as the agent of a cutaneous infection in a patient with a neoplastic disease. The fungus has not been reported previously as causing disease in humans. It was distinguished by its rather small conidia with smooth or slightly verruculose walls and a pale brown beak which rarely extended into a secondary conidiophore. In vitro inhibitory activities of amphotericin B, ketoconazole, itraconazole, and miconazole were shown.
