Trichosporon species cause wide varieties of fungal infections. White piedra, a superficial fungal infection on the hair shaft, is caused by Trichosporon species. We report here a case of white piedra over the scalp due to T. inkin, a rarely isolated pathogen from such a lesion. The identification of the fungus was confirmed on the basis of morphology,

Invasive infection with Trichosporon inkin in 2 siblings with chronic granulomatous disease
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2004A 9-year-old girl with autosomal recessive chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) presented with asymptomatic bilateral pulmonary infiltrates on routine computed tomography. Fine-needle aspirate of the infiltrates was obtained and showed fungal cells resembling Trichosporon inkin . The specimen grew in culture, and testing by means of both API 20C and PCR

Disseminated Trichosporon inkin and Histoplasma capsulatum in a patient with newly diagnosed AIDS
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2008Histoplasma capsulatum and Trichosporon inkin may cause disseminated disease in immunocompromised patients. Disseminated T inkin, the causative agent of white piedra, is rare and difficult to diagnose. We report the case of a 28 year-old man with newly diagnosed HIV infection who developed asymptomatic lesions on his trunk and extremities.

We report four cases of scalp white piedra (SWP) in Brazilian female children. Morphological and physiological approaches gave inconsistent results for identifying Trichosporon to species level, while the sequencing of the intergenic spacer 1 region of ribosomal DNA accurately identified the agent of SWP as T. inkin.

Co-isolation of Trichosporon inkin and Candida parapsilosis from a scalp white piedra case
Medical Mycology, 2004White piedra is a rare fungal infection of the hair shaft characterized by small, firm, irregular white-brown nodules. The infection is caused by basidiomycetous yeasts in the genus Trichosporon. We report a case of a 28-year-old female patient who acquired the infection in Qatar.

Trichosporon species are usually opportunistic pathogens. Disseminated trichosporonosis is uncommon but is increasingly reported with a high mortality rate, especially in immunocompromised patients. Although Trichosporon asahii and T. mucoides are known as the most common pathogens of disseminated trichosporonosis, cases of systemic infection due to T.

Infection by Trichosporon Inkin in Lung Transplant: Rare Infection, or Not So Rare?
Transplantation ProceedingsThe incidence of invasive fungal infections has increased in recent years among transplant patients, with Trichosporon inkin being a rare but relevant etiological agent. This study examines the experience of our multidisciplinary lung transplant unit in the diagnosis and treatment of 6 cases of T.

Infective endocarditis caused by Trichosporon inkin is an exceptionally rare fungal infection, particularly in immunocompetent patients. This microorganism is part of the normal microbiota of the skin and gastrointestinal tract, but can cause invasive infections associated with prosthetic devices or complex clinical conditions.
