Multiple Aspergillus brain abscesses in immuno-competent patient with severe cranio-facial trauma.
    Acta neurochirurgica, 2007, Volume: 149, Issue:6

    Aspergillosis of the central nervous system (CNS) is a rare, but well described disease in immuno-competent patients. We present a 65-year-old patient who developed neuro-aspergillosis 10 months after severe cranio-facial trauma (Le Fort III). He was treated successfully with surgery including stereotactic drainage and, with Amphotericin B, Liposomal Amphotericin B, and Itraconazol.

Bilateral Candida albicans dacryocystitis with facial cellulitis.
    Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie, 1982, Volume: 17, Issue:4

    Candida albicans rarely infects the lacrimal drainage system. This paper describes a case of bilateral C. albicans dacryocystitis following midfacial trauma. The patient presented with recurrent facial cellulitis and a fistula opening onto the cheek. The condition was controlled only after bilateral dacryocystorhinostomy along with amphotericin B therapy. This appears to be the first reported case in which the lacrimal sacs acted as a reservoir for microorganisms causing recurrent facial cellulitis.
