Clinical features and antifungal treatment of invasive Scedosporium boydii infection: report of a case and literature overview.
Objective: This study aims to present a case of persistent mycetoma caused by Scedosporium boydii and undertake a systematic literature overview to elucidate the clinical characteristics and antifungal treatment exhibited by such patients.
Methods: We report the case of a 24-year-old female who sustained a Scedosporium boydii infection in her right foot over a decade ago following a nail puncture. Concurrently, a comprehensive literature overview was conducted on PubMed, focusing on documented cases of Scedosporium boydii infections with the intent of extracting relevant clinical data.
Results: Our analysis revealed that post-transplantation, trauma, near drowning, corticosteroid administration, and prior surgical history were the main risk factors for Scedosporium boydii infection. Prevalent infection sites included skin/bone tissues, the central nervous system, and ocular regions. Among the 49 patients identified, 24 received itraconazole therapy and 25 received voriconazole, with no significant difference in patient outcomes (P = 0.158). Of these, 12 patients experienced treatment failure. Notably, prolonged antifungal treatment duration was identified as a protective factor against mortality in Scedosporium boydii infections [P = 0.022, OR(95%CI): 0.972(0.949-0.996)]. Conversely, a history of post-transplantation emerged as a potential risk factor for mortality[P = 0.046, OR(95%CI): 7.017(1.034-47.636)].
Conclusion: While uncommon, Scedosporium boydii infections carry a significant burden of morbidity and adverse outcomes. Heightened clinical vigilance is warranted in individuals presenting with risk factors for this pathogen. Timely and effective antifungal intervention is crucial, with both voriconazole and itraconazole demonstrating positive treatment outcomes for Scedosporium boydii infection. Therefore, prioritizing these antifungal agents should be considered a key therapeutic strategy in the management of this patient population.
期刊介绍：
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials considers good quality, novel and international research of more than regional relevance. Research must include epidemiological and/or clinical information about isolates, and the journal covers the clinical microbiology of bacteria, viruses and fungi, as well as antimicrobial treatment of infectious diseases.
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials is an open access, peer-reviewed journal focusing on information concerning clinical microbiology, infectious diseases and antimicrobials. The management of infectious disease is dependent on correct diagnosis and appropriate antimicrobial treatment, and with this in mind, the journal aims to improve the communication between laboratory and clinical science in the field of clinical microbiology and antimicrobial treatment. Furthermore, the journal has no restrictions on space or access; this ensures that the journal can reach the widest possible audience.
