Abstract

Key Clinical Message

Muscular and subcutaneous candidiasis is a rare entity in immunocompromised patients, but it should be kept in mind when we see multiple cystic soft tissue masses in addition to target-shaped hepatosplenic lesions in neutropenic patients. US and MRI are useful imaging modalities for the diagnosis and follow-up of these patients.

Soft tissue candidiasis is an opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients and must always be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible. In this case report, the patient is a 14-year-old boy with acute myeloid leukemia M3-type who presented with numerous soft tissue and hepatosplenic candidal abscesses.

急性髓母细胞白血病并发肌肉及肝脾念珠菌病1例报告及文献复习

肌肉和皮下念珠菌病在免疫功能低下患者中是一种罕见的疾病，但当我们在中性粒细胞减少患者中看到多发囊性软组织肿块和靶形肝脾病变时，我们应该记住这一点。超声和核磁共振成像是诊断和随访这些患者有用的成像方式。软组织念珠菌病是免疫功能低下患者的机会性感染，必须尽快诊断和治疗。在这个病例报告中，患者是一个14岁的男孩，患有急性髓性白血病m3型，表现为大量软组织和肝脾念珠菌脓肿。

期刊介绍： Clinical Case Reports is different from other case report journals. Our aim is to directly improve global health and increase clinical understanding using case reports to convey important best practice information. We welcome case reports from all areas of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science and may include: -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates an important best practice teaching message -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates the appropriate use of an important clinical guideline or systematic review. As well as: -The management of novel or very uncommon diseases -A common disease presenting in an uncommon way -An uncommon disease masquerading as something more common -Cases which expand understanding of disease pathogenesis -Cases where the teaching point is based on an error -Cases which allow us to re-think established medical lore -Unreported adverse effects of interventions (drug, procedural, or other).
