Scedosporium apiospermum (also known as Pseudallescheria boydii) is a ubiquitous filamentous fungus. This fungus is known as a cause of mycetoma, which may occur in a normally immune host following trauma. However, in an immunocompromised host, S. apiospermum may cause a life-threatening infection. We describe a case of S. apiospermum infection of the right hand in a patient who was receiving long-term immunosuppressants for adult Still's disease. We also review the cases of S. apiospermum infection with cutaneous manifestations reported between 1998 and 2003.
波氏假阿利什霉（也称为皮壳状枝孢霉）是一种广泛存在的丝状真菌。这种真菌是足菌肿的病因，足菌肿可能在正常免疫宿主遭受创伤后发生。然而，在免疫功能低下的宿主中，波氏假阿利什霉可能引起危及生命的感染。我们描述了一例成年斯蒂尔病患者因长期接受免疫抑制剂治疗而发生右手波氏假阿利什霉感染的病例。我们还回顾了1998年至2003年间报告的有皮肤表现的波氏假阿利什霉感染病例。
