摘要
丝状真菌感染是免疫力低下患者全身感染的重要原因。镰刀菌属的成员由于能够附着在导管上,因此有可能引起播散性感染,尤其是在使用导管的患者中。我们描述了厄瓜多尔一名 COVID-19 患者因镰刀菌引起的致命真菌血症病例。属的鉴定采用常规技术,种的鉴定采用分子和系统发育技术,通过对 ITS 区域进行测序。
First report of fatal fungemia due Fusarium oxysporum in a patient with COVID-19 in Ecuador
Filamentous fungal infections are an important cause of systemic infections in immunocompromised patients. Fusarium genus members potentially cause disseminated infections, especially in patients with catheters, due to the ability to adhere to these devices. We describe a case of fatal fungemia due to Fusarium oxysporum in a patient with COVID-19 in Ecuador. The genus identification was carried out with conventional techniques and species identification by molecular and phylogenetic techniques through sequencing of the ITS region.
