Yarrowia lipolytica is a weakly pathogenic yeast that is rarely isolated from the blood. We observed transient recurrent catheter-related fungemia attributable to this organism in a leukemic patient. The fungemia and accompanying fever subsided spontaneously. The data suggest that it might be possible to withhold specific treatment for Y. lipolytica fungemia even in an immunocompromised patient.
解脂耶氏酵母是一种致病性较弱的酵母,很少从血液中分离出来。我们在一名白血病患者中观察到由这种微生物引起的短暂复发性导管相关真菌血症。真菌血症和伴随的发热自行消退。数据表明,即使在免疫功能低下的患者中,也可能无需对解脂耶氏酵母真菌血症进行特异性治疗。
