We report a case of disseminated sporotrichosis in a 49-year-old man who was treated with multiple immunosuppressants, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha antagonists (etanercept and infliximab), for presumed inflammation arthritis. This case illustrates the potential for infectious complications related to the use of cytotoxic immunosuppressants and anticytokine agents, such as TNF-alpha antagonists.
我们报告一例49岁男性播散性孢子丝菌病病例,该患者因疑似炎症性关节炎接受了多种免疫抑制剂治疗,包括肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α拮抗剂(依那西普和英夫利昔单抗)。该病例说明了使用细胞毒性免疫抑制剂和抗细胞因子药物(如TNF-α拮抗剂)可能引发感染并发症。
