Clinical presentations can be classified into four types: (i) cutaneous/subcutaneous, (ii) ocular, (iii) vascular, and (iv) disseminated pythiosis. Serological tests such as immunodiffusion and immunochromotographic test are useful to make rapid diagnosis in cutaneous and vascular pythiosis. We report a case of 35 year-old male with vascular pythiosis of both legs, diagnosed by serology and molecular techniques. © 2012 International Society for Human and Animal Mycology.Mahidol UniversityImmunology and MicrobiologyMedicineArticleSCOPUS10.1016/j.mmcr.2012.12.002
