flucytosine has been researched along with Blastomycosis in 18 studies
Flucytosine: A fluorinated cytosine analog that is used as an antifungal agent.
flucytosine : An organofluorine compound that is cytosine that is substituted at position 5 by a fluorine. A prodrug for the antifungal 5-fluorouracil, it is used for the treatment of systemic fungal infections.
Blastomycosis: A fungal infection that may appear in two forms: 1, a primary lesion characterized by the formation of a small cutaneous nodule and small nodules along the lymphatics that may heal within several months; and 2, chronic granulomatous lesions characterized by thick crusts, warty growths, and unusual vascularity and infection in the middle or upper lobes of the lung.

| " Two distinct eras of rapid progress in antifungal therapy followed: first, in the 1950's came the introduction of the polyenes, nystatin and pimaricin for cutaneous, vaginal and intestinal candidiasis, and amphotericin B for the treatment of severe systemic mycoses." | 4.76 | Progress in antimycotic chemotherapy 1945-1980. ( Holt, RJ, 1980) |
| " This case is of interest not only because of the exceptional location of the abscess in the brainstem, but also because of its treatment: this was the first case where the fluconazole-flucytosine combination was used against blastomycosis with fully satisfactory results after a 28-month follow-up." | 3.68 | [Blastomycosis localized in the brain stem]. ( Cosnefroy, JY; Dujardin, P; Ferrari, E; Gari-Toussaint, M; Lefichoux, Y; Michiels, JF; Paquis, P; Taillan, B, 1992) |
| "The deep mycoses are increasing in importance both as opportunistic infections and from exposure in geographically defined areas." | 2.37 | Cutaneous and mucosal manifestations of the deep mycotic infections. ( Meyer, RD, 1986) |
| "Although blastomycosis is endemic in North America, only 4 cases have been identified in Natal during the last 25 years, and all presented with atypical clinical features." | 1.28 | Tropical mycoses. ( Bayles, MA, 1992) |
