Abstract

Phaeohyphomycoses are infections caused by dark-walled dematiaceous fungi. Alternaria and Curvularia are two genera of dematiaceous molds known to cause invasive fungal rhinosinusitis, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Co-infection with two dematiaceous fungi is rarely reported in the literature. This report describes a case of biopsy proven invasive fungal rhinosinusitis with Alternaria spp. and Curvularia spp. co-infection in a neutropenic host. The infection characteristics, microbiologic findings, and treatment are described.

一名中性粒细胞减少的宿主同时感染交替孢霉属和卷曲孢霉属的侵袭性真菌病

真菌性鼻炎是由黑壁脱霉真菌引起的感染。Alternaria和Curvularia是两种已知可引起侵袭性真菌性鼻炎的脱霉菌属，尤其是在免疫力低下的患者中。文献中很少报道两种脱霉真菌同时感染的病例。本报告描述了一例经活检证实的侵袭性真菌性鼻炎病例，患者为中性粒细胞减少的宿主，同时伴有交替孢属真菌和卷曲孢属真菌的双重感染。文中描述了感染特征、微生物学检查结果和治疗方法。

期刊介绍： The Journal de Mycologie Medicale / Journal of Medical Mycology (JMM) publishes in English works dealing with human and animal mycology. The subjects treated are focused in particular on clinical, diagnostic, epidemiological, immunological, medical, pathological, preventive or therapeutic aspects of mycoses. Also covered are basic aspects linked primarily with morphology (electronic and photonic microscopy), physiology, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, immunochemistry, genetics, taxonomy or phylogeny of pathogenic or opportunistic fungi and actinomycetes in humans or animals. Studies of natural products showing inhibitory activity against pathogenic fungi cannot be considered without chemical characterization and identification of the compounds responsible for the inhibitory activity. JMM publishes (guest) editorials, original articles, reviews (and minireviews), case reports, technical notes, letters to the editor and information. Only clinical cases with real originality (new species, new clinical present action, new geographical localization, etc.), and fully documented (identification methods, results, etc.), will be considered. Under no circumstances does the journal guarantee publication before the editorial board makes its final decision. The journal is indexed in the main international databases and is accessible worldwide through the ScienceDirect and ClinicalKey platforms.
