Abstract

A fatal case of craniofacial zygomycosis caused by Apophysomyces elegans in a 52-year-old man was diagnosed by the presence of broad aseptate, branched hyaline hyphae in tissue from paranasal sinuses and surrounding areas, and isolation of the fungus from the same tissue. The patient suffered from idiopathic myelofibrosis as underlying disease, he was thrombocytopenic and was mildly hyperglycaemic. The infection represents the second case of craniofacial zygomycosis due to A. elegans.

摘要

一名52岁男性因雅致犁头霉引起的颅面部接合菌病致死病例，通过在鼻窦及周围组织中发现宽大无隔、分支透明菌丝以及从同一组织中分离出该真菌得以确诊。患者患有特发性骨髓纤维化这一基础疾病，存在血小板减少症且轻度血糖升高。该感染是第二例由雅致犁头霉引起的颅面部接合菌病。
