Predictors of cure, amputation and follow-up dropout among patients with mycetoma seen at the Mycetoma Research Centre, University of Khartoum, Sudan

Short summary

Among 1544 mycetoma patients, longer treatment duration and no prior recurrence predicted cure in eumycetoma, while larger lesions (>5cm) and combined treatments predicted lower cure rates. Dropout was high (54-55.6%) in both eumycetoma and actinomycetoma groups, with larger lesions and amputations predicting reduced dropout.
