Crossover between the control of fungal pathogens in medicine and the wider environment, and the threat of antifungal resistance

Plant Pathology, Volume 71, Issue 1, Page 131-149, January 2022., 2022
The origin and emergence of resistance to antifungal compounds are evaluated and potential “hot spots” identified for major life‐theatening fungal human pathogens in medical and environmental settings. Abstract Fungal propagules existing in the natural environment can easily be transmitted to the human body, mostly by inhalation of contaminated air or ...

Scedosporium apiospermum lung disease in a patient with nontuberculous mycobacteria

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021
Although tuberculosis has been identified as a major underlying cause of pulmonary mycetoma due to Scedosporium apiospermum infection, little is known about coinfection with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and S. apiospermum. We now report a case of S.

Lung scedosporiosis: a differential diagnosis of aspergillosis [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2002
Lung scedosporiosis is an opportunistic fungus in humans that rarely affects the lung. It may give clinical presentations that are similar to aspergillosis. However, it must be detected because of its frequent resistance to medical treatment. Two cases of pulmonary scedosporiosis that were surgically treated are reported herein.

Misidentification of Scedosporium boydii Infection as Aspergillosis in a Patient with Chronic Renal Failure

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Aspergillosis is a commonly diagnosed fungal infection. Histopathologic examination alone can have diagnostic pitfalls due to the overlapping of fungal morphology. We report a case of Scedosporium boydii infection initially misdiagnosed as aspergillosis.
