Basidiobolomycosis is a rare fungal disease caused by . Involvement of the gastrointestinal tract is unusual and poses both a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, as clinical signs are non-specific and predisposing risk factors are lacking. It can mimick inflammatory bowel disease, primary immunodeficiency, or a malignancy and should be considered in patients who do not respond to standard therapy. We present the case of a 22 months old boy with confirmed colonic Basidiobolomycosis, who presented with severe eosinophilic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Panfungal PCR performed on DNA extracted directly from a tissue sample confirmed the presence of . He made a full recovery with a combination of surgery and prolonged targeted antifungal medication.
担子菌病是一种由……引起的罕见真菌病。胃肠道受累情况不常见,并且带来诊断和治疗方面的挑战,因为临床症状不具特异性且缺乏易感风险因素。它可酷似炎症性肠病、原发性免疫缺陷或恶性肿瘤,对于对标准治疗无反应的患者应考虑此病。我们报告一例确诊为结肠担子菌病的22个月大男孩病例,该患儿出现严重的胃肠道嗜酸性粒细胞炎症。对直接从组织样本中提取的DNA进行的泛真菌聚合酶链反应(PCR)证实存在……。通过手术和长期针对性抗真菌药物联合治疗,他完全康复。
