Invasive fungal infections are considered a threat to hematological malignancy patients (HM). We report here a rare case of pulmonary aspergillosis in a patient diagnosed with leukemia at King Abdulaziz University Hospital. The patient received three cycles of chemotherapy and presented with febrile neutropenia and his fungal culture was repeatedly negative while signs of aspergillosis in a computed topography (CT) scan were evident. The patient was successfully recovered after 6 weeks of voriconazole treatment.
侵袭性真菌感染被认为是血液系统恶性肿瘤患者(HM)面临的一种威胁。我们在此报告在阿卜杜勒阿齐兹国王大学医院一名被诊断为白血病的患者中发生的一例罕见的肺曲霉病病例。该患者接受了三个周期的化疗,出现发热性中性粒细胞减少,其真菌培养结果反复为阴性,而计算机断层扫描(CT)扫描中曲霉病的迹象明显。该患者在伏立康唑治疗6周后成功康复。
