We described the first documented case of intravenous-catheter-associated fungemia caused by Torulopsis candida (Candida famata). The microorganism was isolated from two blood cultures and one intravenous catheter tip in a bone marrow transplant patient. Both the intravascular cannula and the immunological status of the patient are believed to have played major roles in predisposing the patient to such an infection. Uneventful recovery occurred after the removal of the catheter and amphotericin B therapy.
我们描述了首例有记录的由季也蒙念珠菌（解脂念珠菌）引起的静脉导管相关真菌血症病例。该微生物是从一名骨髓移植患者的两份血培养物和一个静脉导管尖端分离出来的。血管内插管和患者的免疫状态都被认为在使患者易患此类感染方面起了主要作用。拔除导管并进行两性霉素B治疗后，患者顺利康复。
