Kartulis, in Alexandria, described about a hundred cases of a skin 244 THE PATHOGENIC MOLDS affection occurring in the gluteal regions of men and characterized byan elongated finger-like swelling, which breaks and emits a purulentdischarge, forming an unhealed sinus. In the discharge and surroundingtissues are numerous blastomycetes which Kartulis after cultivationand study considered a variety of the ordinary fermenting yeast (Saccha-romyces cerevisise Hansen). The cases were cured by excising thegrowth. Kessler reported a skin lesion in an infant (Fig. 98) probably dueto a similar blastomycete, since the lesions healed after treatment withpotassium iodide. The description of the yeast isolated is too incompleteto identify it. Some years ago the attempt was made to connect the
