Meaning
originFrom New Latin of the 19th century; by surface analysis, mycete + -oma; the fact that the word predates 20th century microbiology explains why the use of this name is not specific to mycotic disease: the disease was named for fungal and apparently fungal causes, and its full pathophysiology (and the current taxonomy of the various causative pathogens) was learned later.
