Fungi can cause serious cranial infections in immunocompromised and diabetic patients. Common pathogens mainly include Aspergillus and Mucor. These organisms cause tissue invasion and destruction of adjacent structures (e.g. orbit, ethmoid, sphenoid, maxillary & cavernous sinuses). Mortality and morbidity rate is high despite combined surgical, antifungal and antidiabetic treatment. We present our experience of six cases with such infection.
真菌可在免疫功能低下和糖尿病患者中引发严重的颅内感染。常见病原体主要包括曲霉菌和毛霉菌。这些微生物会导致组织侵袭并破坏相邻结构(如眼眶、筛窦、蝶窦、上颌窦和海绵窦)。尽管采取了手术、抗真菌和抗糖尿病联合治疗,死亡率和发病率仍很高。我们介绍我们治疗6例此类感染患者的经验。
