Risk Factors,Diagnosis and Outcome of Proven and Probable Invasive Trichosporonosis in a Tertiary Care Hospital: A Cross-sectional Analytical Study [PDF]
Introduction: Trichosporon species are basidiomycetous yeast like fungus that is ubiquitous in the environment. They form part of the normal flora in humans. In recent years, they have been causing invasive infections, especially in the immunocompromised

Hemoglobin Differentially Induces Binding of Candida, Trichosporon, and Saccharomyces Species to Fibronectin [PDF]
Fibronectin (FN) is an abundant host protein that is specifically recognized by several pathogenic yeasts. Binding of FN in solution to Candida, Trichosporon, and Saccharomyces species is increased 20- to 110-fold by growth in medium containing hemoglobin, but specific adhesion to immobilized FN is increased only in Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis,

Trichosporon species isolated from the perigenital region, urine and catheters of a Brazilian population [PDF]
The present study aimed to 1) determine the colonization rates of medically important Trichosporon species on normal perigenital skin and 2) determine the isolation rates of Trichosporon spp. isolated from the urine and catheters of Brazilian patients hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The overall colonization rate of Trichosporon spp.

Introduction: Trichosporonosis is usually known to cause superficial mycoses, but now it is emerged as an opportunistic infectious disease. Trichosporon species is fairly uncommon fungus but can cause fatal mycosis in immunocompromised patients. Objective: This study is an attempt to know prevalence of invasive trichosporonosis and its antifungal ...

Orthopedic infections due to Trichosporon species: Case series and literature review
Abstract Reports of orthopedic fungal infections caused by Trichosporon species are extremely scarce, thus we aimed to describe a case series and review the cases published in the literature. Patients were retrospectively included if a previous culture of bone, joint, or soft tissues had resulted positive for Trichosporon species along ...
