Solid organ transplant recipients are particularly prone to infections, and many germs can be involved, including opportunistic pathogens. Regarding catheter-related infections however, the number of causative microorganisms is most often limited to germs of the skin flora, rare enterobacteria and .
We present here a case of venous catheter-related cutaneous infection in a man with immunosuppression, which was surprisingly caused by a rare environmental fungus, named The therapeutic strategy combining posaconazole and removal surgery appears to have been effective, with no relapse more than 2 months after surgery.
Due to advances in molecular biology techniques, it is possible that infections with spp. will be increasingly described. At the moment the reported cases are few in number, and the treatment is not yet standardized, which is why we thought this new case could support the literature about these opportunistic pathogens.
实体器官移植受者特别容易感染,可能涉及许多病菌,包括机会性病原体。然而,关于导管相关感染,致病微生物的数量通常仅限于皮肤菌群的病菌、罕见的肠杆菌等。
我们在此呈现一名免疫抑制男性发生静脉导管相关皮肤感染的病例,令人惊讶的是,该感染由一种名为的罕见环境真菌引起。泊沙康唑与手术切除相结合的治疗策略似乎有效,术后2个多月未复发。
由于分子生物学技术的进步,越来越有可能发现感染病例。目前报告的病例数量较少,治疗方法尚未标准化,这就是为什么我们认为这个新病例可以为关于这些机会性病原体的文献提供支持。
