The use of adjuvant interferon-gamma therapy for hepatosplenic Blastoschizomyces capitatus infection in a patient with leukemia.

J DeMaio1, L Colman.   

Abstract

Hepatosplenic fungal infections are a devastating complication of neutropenia. Despite aggressive antifungal therapy, clinical response may be poor. We describe a case of hepatosplenic Blastoschizomyces capitatus infection that responded to adjuvant interferon-gamma therapy.
