title: [Mycetoma with black granules: first case in a native of Israel].
abstract: We present a case of black grain mycetoma caused by Madurella mycetomatis. The diagnosis was made on the basis of conventional light microscopy and mycological studies. After 12 months of oral therapy with ketoconazole, the patient showed partial response. This is the first native Israeli case of black grain mycetoma.
