Abstract Eumycetoma is a neglected tropical infection of the subcutaneous tissue, characterized by tumor-like lesions and most commonly caused by the fungus Madurella mycetomatis. In the tissue, M. mycetomatis organizes itself in grains, and within a single lesion, thousands of grains can be present. The current hypothesis is that all these grains originate from a single causative agent, however, this hypothesis was never proven. Here, we used our recently developed MmySTR assay, a highly discriminative typing method, to determine the genotypes of multiple grains within a single lesion. Multiple grains from surgical lesions obtained from 11 patients were isolated and genotyped using the MmySTR panel. Within a single lesion, all tested grains shared the same genotype. Only in one single grain from one patient, a difference of one repeat unit in one MmySTR marker was noted relative to the other grains from that patient. We conclude that within these lesions the grains originate from a single clone and that the inherent unstable nature of the microsatellite markers may lead to small genotypic differences. Lay Abstract In lesions of the implantation mycosis mycetoma many Madurella mycetomatis grains are noted. It was unknown if grains arose after implantation of a single isolate or a mixture of genetically diverse isolates. By typing the mycetoma grains we showed that all grains within a single lesion were clonal and originated from a single isolate.
