Abstract

Introduction.Exophiala dermatitidisis a relatively common environmental black yeast with worldwide distribution and is a rare cause of fungal infection, mostly in patients with certain predisposing factors. Due to the rarity of the infection, little is known about the specific predisposing factors, way of infection or treatment. Case presentation. Here, we report what is to our knowledge the first case of E. dermatitidis infection in a child after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. We also review all paediatric cases reported in the literature since 1993. Conclusion. This is, to our knowledge, the first reported case of E. dermatitidis infection in a child after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. This report should increase the awareness of E. dermatitidis in immunocompromised paediatric patients, particularly after stem cell transplantation.

异基因干细胞移植后儿童外表皮皮炎感染1例:儿科病例报告及文献复习。

介绍。外源性皮炎是一种比较常见的环境黑酵母，分布在世界各地，是一种罕见的真菌感染原因，主要发生在具有某些易感因素的患者中。由于感染的罕见性，对具体的易感因素，感染方式或治疗方法知之甚少。案例演示。在这里，我们报告什么是我们所知的第一例皮炎杆菌感染的儿童后异体干细胞移植。我们还回顾了自1993年以来文献报道的所有儿科病例。结论。据我们所知，这是第一例异体干细胞移植后儿童皮炎杆菌感染的报道。该报告应提高免疫功能低下的儿科患者，特别是干细胞移植后对皮炎的认识。
