Abstract

We report the first human case of Arthrocladium tropicale peritonitis in a PD patient presenting with abdominal pain and low effluent cell counts. Diagnosis was confirmed by rDNA sequencing. The isolate was resistant to posaconazole but susceptible to amphotericin B. Treatment with intravenous amphotericin B, in conjunction with prompt catheter removal, resulted in full recovery, consistent with ISPD guideline principles. Environmental findings of damp walls and ant infestation near PD supplies highlight the importance of strict environmental control to prevent contamination from opportunistic fungi in PD.
袋室黑霉:腹膜透析患者热带节韧带腹膜炎一例
我们报告了第一例人类热带节韧带腹膜炎在PD患者表现为腹痛和低流出细胞计数。通过rDNA测序确诊。该分离株对泊沙康唑耐药,但对两性霉素B敏感。静脉注射两性霉素B,并及时拔除导管,完全恢复,符合ISPD指南原则。PD用品附近潮湿的墙壁和蚂蚁侵扰的环境调查结果强调了严格的环境控制的重要性,以防止PD中机会性真菌的污染。
