This is a case report of subcutaneous mycosis presenting as a non-healing left calf ulcer in an immunocompromised patient. Traumatic inoculation of the causative agent is the most likely route of infection. The diagnosis requires a detailed history and high clinical suspicion, confirmed by histopathological examination. The management requires a multidisciplinary team approach involving surgeon, pathologist, physician sub-specialised in infectious disease, wound care nursing team as well as social support services. The literature review recommended that the treatment of choice for such infection is surgical debridement in addition to optimal antifungal therapy.
Mycoses

Acinetobacter infection, especially the drug-resistant strain, is a common cause of nosocomial infection. However, community-acquired Acinetobacter infection is uncommon. We reported three cases of community-acquired Acinetobacter pneumonia. All three cases had histories of regular home-brewed alcohol consumption presented with severe acute respiratory symptoms requiring ventilatory support and had low total white cell count. They succumbed to the illness within 2 to 10 days of admission. They had positive blood or endotracheal aspirate cultures of sensitive-strain Acinetobacter sp. which was only sensitive to high dose sulbactam. Early recognition and correct antibiotic can help reduce mortality
