Fungemia due to Fusarium sacchari in an immunosuppressed patient.

J Guarro1, M Nucci, T Akiti, J Gené, M D Barreiro, R T Gonçalves.   

Abstract

The fungus Fusarium sacchari was isolated repeatedly from the blood of an immunosuppressed host. The infection was treated successfully with a small dose of amphotericin B. The strain was resistant to this antifungal in vitro. MICs and minimum fungicidal concentrations of six antifungals for the clinical isolate are provided. To our knowledge, this is the first report involving this fungus in a case of fungemia.
