Septic arthritis due to fungal infection is uncommon, but when it does occur it can have a devastating effect. Scedosporium prolificans is an emerging fungal pathogen that appears to have a predilection for bone and cartilaginous surfaces. This fungus is resistant to most commonly prescribed antifungal agents. We report the successful treatment of Scedosporium prolificans septic arthritis with a combination of surgery and new antifungal agents.
真菌感染导致的化脓性关节炎并不常见,但一旦发生,可能会产生毁灭性影响。多育赛多孢是一种新出现的真菌病原体,似乎对骨骼和软骨表面有偏好。这种真菌对大多数常用的抗真菌药物具有耐药性。我们报告了通过手术和新型抗真菌药物联合成功治疗多育赛多孢化脓性关节炎的病例。
