- W2168304072 abstract "Infections caused by rarely encountered fungal pathogens have increased in recent decades. The present study describes a disseminated infection caused by Phialemonium curvatum, and reviews the literature in an effort to summarize prior experiences with this unusual pathogen. The clinical and microbiological characteristics of a new case due to Phialemonium are presented. The case is analysed with 19 other which have appeared in the literature since 1986. Ten cases were sporadic infections, while the others were associated with three small outbreaks. In all but our patient the skin′s natural barrier was compromised (15/20 [75%]) and immunosuppression was a factor in the majority of cases (14/20 [70%]). Dissemination was noted in 83% (5/6) of the immunocompetent patients and in 57% (8/14) of immunocompromised patients. Endocarditis was the most frequent form of infection (8/20 [40%]). Blood cultures were positive in 92% (12/13) of those with disseminated disease. The mortality rate was 54% (7/13) among those with disseminated infections, but fatal outcomes were not observed in patients receiving treatment with itraconazole, voriconazole or posaconazole. The in vitro susceptibility of Phialemonium indicated a more consistent level of activity for voriconazole and posaconazole. Although infections usually occur when there is a breakdown in the skin the skin barrier or host defences are weakened, our case points out that infections due to Phialemonium species may occur in patients without these risk factors. The most frequent form of Phialemonium infections is endovascular, often with endocarditis and positive blood cultures, associated with high mortality rates. Treatment with the new triazoles is associated with improved survival." @default.
