Morphology, description, diagnosis, and comment for fungal infections that present with hyphae or pseudohyphae in tissues. All photographs are of Grocott methenamine silver (GMS)-stained specimens except for the inset in the fourth row, which is a Fontana-Masson stain. The brown color observed in the fungal element is melanin. For each type of infection, alternative testing and correlation with culture, epidemiologic, and clinical features are necessary.
