Mycotic aneurysms due to Trichosporon asahii in a patient with ulcerative colitis under immunosuppression

IDCases, 2023
Yeast fungi of the genus Trichosporon spp. can colonize the gastrointestinal tract in humans. In recent decades, the pathogenic role of Trichosporon asahii has been increasingly acknowledged especially in the setting of neutropenic patients with ...

PS1277 EVALUATION OF THE IMMUNITY TO MEASLES, MUMPS AND RUBELLA IN ADULT PATIENTS AFTER ALLOGENEIC HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION

HemaSphere, Volume 3, Issue S1, Page 584-585, June 2019., 2019
Background: Several studies have shown that most patients become seronegative to measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) during long‐term follow‐up after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo‐HCT). However, these studies mainly targeted pediatric patients and limited data were available for adult patients.

Rapid and Simple Detection of Trichosporon asahii by Optimized Colony PCR

BioMed Research International, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Trichosporon asahii is the major pathogen causing invasive trichosporonosis. Conventional methods of its detection are time‐consuming or costly and often require complex DNA extraction and purification steps, which hinders rapid clinical diagnosis. In this study, we evaluated colony PCR, which directly uses colonies or trace clinical samples as the ...

Trichosporonosis

Medical Mycology Journal, 2012
Trichosporonosis is rare but have been associated with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestation, ranging from superficial infection to severe deep-seated mycosis. Deep-seated trichosporonosis is a lethal opportunistic infection occasionally found in immunocompromised patients, particularly those who are neutropenic due to hematological diseases or ...

Cryptococcal Meningitis in a HIV Seronegative Patient: A Rare Complication of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak Detected with a New Cisternographic Technique

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Immune deficiency is usually the underlying predisposing factor for cryptococcal meningitis, though there have been case reports of immunocompetent patients presenting with same. The portal of entry for Cryptococcus neoformans is the respiratory tract, and by hematogenous spread, it causes systemic symptoms.

Breakthrough Trichosporonosis in Patients with Hematologic Malignancies Receiving Micafungin [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2006
Micafungin is a newly approved antifungal agent in the echinocandin class that is active against Candida species and Aspergillus species. However, this agent has limited activity against a number of fungi, including Trichosporon species. We describe 4 patients who developed disseminated trichosporonosis during the use of micafungin.

Development of a Loop‐Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for Rapid Detection of Trichosporon asahii in Experimental and Clinical Samples

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Invasive trichosporonosis is a deep mycosis found mainly in immunocompromised hosts, and the major pathogen is Trichosporon asahii. We detected the species‐specific intergenic spacers (IGS) of rRNA gene of T. asahii using a loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay in 15 isolates with 3 different visualization methods, including SYBR green ...
