A 3\u2009\u00d7\u20093\u2009cm soft, raised, amorphous, and ulcerated subcutaneous mass was observed on the lateral right metatarsus. In-house cytology via fine-needle aspiration was nondiagnostic. Incisional biopsy of the mass and further staging was declined, and amputation was elected. The amputated limb was submitted for histopathology, which revealed severe chronic nodular granulomatous dermatitis and multifocal granulomatous popliteal lymphadenitis with large numbers of intralesional fungal hyphae. Fungal PCR and sequencing on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue identified Chalastospora gossypii. No adjunctive therapy was elected at the time. The patient has done well clinically 1\u2009y post-operatively. C. gossypii is a rare microfungus found worldwide and is considered a minor pathogen of several plants. To our knowledge, infection by this fungus has not been reported previously in veterinary species. Features in our case are comparable to other mycotic infections. Nodular granulomatous mycotic dermatitis and cellulitis, although uncommon, should be a differential for soft tissue masses in veterinary species; C. gossypii is a novel isolate.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10406387211022298","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,10]],"date-time":"2021-06-10T06:31:56Z","timestamp":1623306716000},"page":"975-978","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["<i>Chalastospora gossypii<\/i>\n                    in a Maine Coon cat: case report and literature review"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"33","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4979-4537","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Samantha M.","family":"Norris","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"BluePearl Pet Hospital, Auburn Hills, MI, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paula A.","family":"Schaffer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Pathology, College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Noah B.","family":"Bander","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BluePearl Pet Hospital, Auburn Hills, MI, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/jfms.2002.0183"},{"key":"bibr2-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2509\/naf2013.008.004"},{"key":"bibr3-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/mmy\/myu082"},{"key":"bibr4-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3767\/003158509X461701"},{"key":"bibr5-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5326\/JAAHA-MS-6768"},{"key":"bibr6-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-3164.2009.00875.x"},{"key":"bibr7-10406387211022298","first-page":"385","volume":"55","author":"Gade L","year":"2017","journal-title":"Med Mycol"},{"key":"bibr8-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/eve.12761"},{"key":"bibr9-10406387211022298","first-page":"301","volume-title":"Skin Diseases of the Dog and Cat: Clinical and Histopathologic Diagnosis","volume":"2005","author":"Gross T","edition":"2"},{"key":"bibr10-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612X13489227"},{"key":"bibr11-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jvim.14824"},{"key":"bibr12-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1748-5827.2001.tb01996.x"},{"key":"bibr13-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5943\/sif\/3\/1\/34"},{"key":"bibr14-10406387211022298","first-page":"629","volume":"36","author":"Outerbridge CA","year":"1995","journal-title":"Can Vet J"},{"key":"bibr15-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11046-015-9909-y"},{"key":"bibr16-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-0691.2008.02024.x"},{"key":"bibr17-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1439-0507.1993.tb00740.x"},{"key":"bibr18-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/mmy\/myt003"},{"key":"bibr19-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1292\/jvms.13-0449"},{"key":"bibr20-10406387211022298","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jprot.2017.03.009"}],"container-title":["Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/10406387211022298","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/10406387211022298","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/10406387211022298","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,2]],"date-time":"2026-05-02T00:24:32Z","timestamp":1777681472000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/10406387211022298"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,10]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/10406387211022298"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/10406387211022298","relation":{},"ISSN":["1040-6387","1943-4936"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1040-6387","type":"print"},{"value":"1943-4936","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,10]]}}}
