Scedosporium apiospermum otomycosis

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 2007
We present a case of Scedosporium apiospermum otomycosis in an immunocompetent 62-year-old woman presumably inoculated as a child in Vietnam. She had life-long recurrent symptoms of chronic otomastoiditis and otorrhea. The organism was identified in an unexpected wound infection after a modified radical mastoidectomy done for chronic otitis media ...

Scedosporium apiospermum (Pseudallescheria boydii) Endocarditis

Journal of Infection, 2002
Scedosporium apiospermum, the asexual state of Pseudallescheria boydii, is increasingly recognized as an opportunistic pathogen. We report a case of native valve endocarditis due to this organism that developed in an elderly patient following a prolonged hospitalization. Literature on endocarditis caused by S. apiospermum and P. boydii is reviewed.

Hydroxamate siderophores of Scedosporium apiospermum

BioMetals, 2009
Scedosporium apiospermum is an emerging pathogen colonizing the airways of patients with cystic fibrosis and causing severe infections in immunocompromised hosts. In order to improve our knowledge on the pathogenic mechanisms of this fungus, we investigated the production of siderophores.

Scedosporium apiospermum pacemaker endocarditis

International Journal of Cardiology, 2009
A patient developed a fungal pacemaker infection with Scedosporium apiospermum following a series of pacemaker manipulations. Despite percutaneous removal of the pacemaker system and subsequent operative extraction of the atrial thrombus, his course was complicated by persistent sepsis, pulmonary septic emboli and bilateral frontal lobe infarction ...

Scedosporium apiospermum–Associated Gonarthritis

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 2000
Abstract Summary: A 23-year-old woman, otherwise healthy, hurt her left knee in a fall with resulting superficial abrasions and pain. This was followed by inflammation and effusion and the pain continued. Because damage to the meniscus was suspected, she underwent diagnostic arthroscopy. Initially, only severe synovitis was detected.

Scedosporium apiospermum post-traumatic cranial infection

Brain Injury, 2002
Scedosporium apiospermum is an environmental mould. Human infection caused by this organism is described more and more often. However, only a few case reports demonstrate its role as a telluric contaminant in patients affected by traumatism. This report is the case of a severe post traumatic infection by S.

Severe Keratomycosis Secondary to Scedosporium Apiospermum

Cornea, 2002
To report an unusual case of severe keratomycosis caused by Scedosporium apiospermum without any known previous ocular injury, that resulted in a corneal perforation, which was treated with an emergency penetrating tectonic keratoplasty and later with phacoemulsification and astigmatic keratotomy to restore good visual function.A 45-year-old woman with

Scedosporium apiospermum infection after near‐drowning

Mycoses, 2007
Summary Scedosporium apiospermum and its teleomorph (sexual form) Pseudallescheria boydii are ubiquitous saprophytic fungi, which under specific conditions, such as near‐drowning, may cause therapy‐refractory and life‐threatening infections. We reviewed 22 cases (eight children and 14 adults) of S.
