During August and September, 1992, we experienced 4 cases of Hansenula anomala (H. anomala, synonym Pichia anomala) fungemia in immunocompromised patients. Two patients had been suffering from a malignant disease, 3 of them had received broad-spectrum antibiotics and a central venous catheter (CVC) had been inserted in all of them. H. anomala was isolated as the sole pathogen from all 4 patients. Three of them responded favorably to fluconazole after withdrawal of the catheter, but one failed. H. anomala should be considered as a possible cause of catheter-related infections.
1992年8月至9月期间,我们在免疫功能低下的患者中遇到了4例异常汉逊酵母(异常汉逊酵母,同义词异常毕赤酵母)菌血症病例。2例患者患有恶性疾病,其中3例接受了广谱抗生素治疗,并且所有患者均插入了中心静脉导管(CVC)。从所有4例患者中均分离出异常汉逊酵母作为唯一病原体。其中3例在拔除导管后对氟康唑反应良好,但1例无效。应将异常汉逊酵母视为导管相关感染的可能原因。
