Case of Renal Aspergillosis after Heart Transplant: Diagnosis and Treatment.
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a severe complication after heart transplantation (HTx), with a high mortality rate. Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is the most common presentation. We herein describe a unique case of Renal aspergillosis (RAsp) diagnosed on month 10 post-HTx with no known risk factors for IPA in cardiac transplant recipients. The diagnosis of RAsp was made based on radiographic findings, renal biopsy, and tissue cultures. The patient initially received combined antifungal therapy (caspofungin and voriconazole) without radical or partial nephrectomy, followed by voriconazole maintenance monotherapy with favorable clinical outcomes.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Organ Transplantation Medicine (IJOTM) is a quarterly peer-reviewed English-language journal that publishes high-quality basic sciences and clinical research on transplantation. The scope of the journal includes organ and tissue donation, procurement and preservation; surgical techniques, innovations, and novelties in all aspects of transplantation; genomics and immunobiology; immunosuppressive drugs and pharmacology relevant to transplantation; graft survival and prevention of graft dysfunction and failure; clinical trials and population analyses in the field of transplantation; transplant complications; cell and tissue transplantation; infection; post-transplant malignancies; sociological and ethical issues and xenotransplantation.
