Abstract:
Invasive fungal infections caused by Candida species are increasingly observed in immunosuppressed patients. Candida albicans is the more often identified species and neurocandidiasis is associated with high mortality rates. Diagnosis and treatment of these infections are frequently challenging. We report a case of central nervous system infection caused by Candida famata in an HIV-1 infected patient. To our best knowledge this is just the second published case of neural infection by this agent.
摘要:
在免疫抑制患者中越来越多地观察到由念珠菌引起的侵袭性真菌感染。白色念珠菌是更常见的物种,神经念珠菌病与高死亡率有关。这些感染的诊断和治疗通常具有挑战性。我们报告了一例HIV-1感染患者中由念珠菌引起的中枢神经系统感染。据我们所知,这只是该试剂引起的第二例已发表的神经感染病例。
