We report the first case, to our knowledge, of Blastoschizomyces capitatus infection occurring in a patient receiving empirical echinocandin therapy for neutropenic fevers. Clinicians should consider B. capitatus infection in those neutropenic patients who remain febrile despite echinocandin therapy or who develop yeast bloodstream infections while receiving an echinocandin.
我们报告了首例裂殖酵母感染病例,据我们所知,该病例发生在接受经验性棘白菌素治疗中性粒细胞减少性发热的患者中。对于那些尽管接受了棘白菌素治疗仍持续发热或在接受棘白菌素治疗时发生酵母血流感染的中性粒细胞减少患者,临床医生应考虑裂殖酵母感染。
