Aspergillus fumigatus lung abscess in two adolescents with cystic fibrosis
Lung abscess is a severe but rare complication among non-transplanted cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. <10 cases have been reported in the international literature so far and bacteria were considered the responsible pathogen. We present two cases of CF adolescent patients who developed lung abscess from A. fumigatus, critically revealed with chest Computed Tomography. In one patient, a thyroid abscess was additionally detected. Both patients presented with fever, not responding to antibiotic therapy. Microbial cultures and molecular testing aided detection of the pathogen. Both patients responded well to antifungal treatment.
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.
