Hazards of inadequate fluconazole dosage to treat deep-seated or systemic Candida albicans infection.
We report three cases of deep-seated and systemic Candida albicans infection in which inadequate dosages of fluconazole were used, leading to breakthrough fungaemia, candidal osteomyelitis and endocarditis. The need to modify fluconazole dosage in patients receiving continuous venovenous haemofiltration is discussed. Topics: Adult; Aged; Amphotericin B; Amputation, Surgical; Antifungal Agents; Arthrodesis; Candidiasis; Diplopia; Fatal Outcome; Female; Fluconazole; Flucytosine; Hemofiltration; Hernia, Inguinal; Humans; Male; Meningococcal Infections; Osteomyelitis; Pulmonary Ventilation; Vitrectomy | 1997 |
Inguinal abscess caused by Rhizopus rhizopodiformis: successful treatment with surgery and amphotericin B.
Rhizopus rhizopodiformis has seldom been isolated from human mucormycosis. We report the first subcutaneous abscess to be caused by this fungus. It occurred in a diabetic man and presented as an inguinal mass, suggestive of a hernia, superficial to his cadaveric renal transplant. The fungus was readily isolated from pus inoculated onto blood and chocolate agars after a short incubation. The patient was cured by surgical drainage and treatment with 2.0 g of intravenous amphotericin B. Complete identification of such isolates is recommended.
