Arthrocladium fulminans is the only species in the Arthrocladium genus that has been involved in a previous human infection. To date, only one case of A. fulminans infection in a patient with GATA-2 immunodeficiency has been reported. We here report the second human case and the first case of septic arthritis and osteomyelitis due to A. fulminans in an immunocompetent patient, living in Mayotte, a French island in western Indian Ocean. He was successfully treated with surgical debridement and 6 months of antifungal treatment. This second observation of human invasive disease caused by A. fulminans is an additional argument for the pathogenicity of this rare species.
