Histoplasmosis is an expected endemic mycosis in solid organ transplant recipients and occurs as a primary infection, reactivation, or, rarely, acquired from an infected allograft. Reactivation is favored by maintenance immunosuppression or anti-rejection therapy, which facilitates the appearance of disseminated forms as well as unusual presentations. We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with isolated tenosynovitis due to Histoplasma capsulatum 25 years after a kidney transplant.
组织胞浆菌病是实体器官移植受者中一种预期的地方性真菌病,可表现为原发性感染、再激活或罕见的从感染的同种异体移植物中获得。再激活有利于维持免疫抑制或抗排斥治疗,这有助于出现播散形式以及不常见的表现。我们报告了一例 66 岁女性病例,她在肾移植 25 年后因荚膜组织胞浆菌引起的单一性腱鞘炎。
