title: Localized oral Fusarium infection in an AIDS patient with malignant lymphoma.
abstract: We report here a case of localized oral Fusarium infection in an AIDS patient who developed an ulceration in the soft palate. Fusarium solani was identified by histopathology and culture. We believe this to be the second reported case of oral Fusarium infection in a patient with haematological malignancy and the first reported association of oral Fusarium infection with AIDS.
