A statistical, pathological observation of mycosis in Japan according to the Annual of Pathological Autopsy Cases in Japan for the 20-year period between 1958 and 1977 was performed. The total number of autopsy cases reported in the Annual was 390, 693, 1.672% of which involved mycosis. The incidence of various mycosis showed candidiasis to be the most frequent, followed by aspergillosis, cryptococcosis and mucormycosis. The incidence by the year showed an overall tendency to increase. The distribution by the site of the lesion of mycosis showed that, with candidiasis, the esophagus is the most frequently affected, while with aspergillosis, cryptococcosis and mucormycosis, the lung is the most often involved. The most common primary diseases of secondary mycosis are leukemia, malignant lymphoma and aplastic anemia, in that order.
