Fusarium is an opportunistic fungal pathogen which is emerging as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the immunocompromised host [Fleming RV, Walsh TJ, Anaissie EJ. Emerging and less common fungal pathogens. Infect Dis Clin North Am 2002;16:915-34]. This disease can be localized, focally invasive or disseminated, when two or more noncontiguous sites are involved. Therapeutic options are scarce and mortality reaches 80-90% in patients subjected to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) [Nucci M, Marr KA, Queiroz-Telles F, Martins CA, Trabasso P, Costa S, et al. Fusarium infection in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipient. Clin Infect Dis 2004;1237-42]. We report a case of disseminated Fusariosis in a severe immunocompromised patient after allo-SCT that responded to treatment with the early combination of intravenous voriconazole and liposomal amphotericin B.
镰刀菌是一种机会性真菌病原体,正逐渐成为免疫功能低下宿主发病和死亡的重要原因[弗莱明RV,沃尔什TJ,阿奈西EJ。新出现和较少见的真菌病原体。北美传染病临床杂志2002;16:915 - 34]。当涉及两个或更多不相邻部位时,这种疾病可以是局限性、局灶性侵袭性或播散性的。治疗选择很少,接受异基因造血干细胞移植(allo - SCT)的患者死亡率达到80 - 90%[努奇M,马尔KA,奎罗斯 - 特莱斯F,马丁斯CA,特拉巴索P,科斯塔S等。造血干细胞移植受者的镰刀菌感染。临床传染病杂志2004;1237 - 42]。我们报告一例allo - SCT后严重免疫功能低下患者发生播散性镰刀菌病的病例,该病例对静脉注射伏立康唑和脂质体两性霉素B早期联合治疗有反应。
