“…7 are comparable to the zygospores developed by C. incongruus in culture.

However, entomophthoralean fungi rarely invade blood vessels, and the pathological features of the observed slender hyphae are not typical of these fungi, so the possibility of infection caused by P. insidiosum has to be taken into consideration (114).…”
