Immunosuppression can allow organisms that are not usually pathogenetic to cause disease; under such circumstances, Aspergillus species frequently form large masses of fungal elements. We describe the case of a 12-year-old girl with hematologic remission of leukemia. She had a left ventricular pedunculated mass that was detected by echocardiographic study; at surgery, the presence of Aspergillus terreus was confirmed.
免疫抑制可使通常不致病的生物体引发疾病;在这种情况下,曲霉菌种常形成大量真菌成分。我们描述了一名白血病血液学缓解的12岁女孩的病例。她通过超声心动图检查发现左心室有一个带蒂肿块;手术时,证实存在土曲霉。
