Intracranial perineural extension of invasive mycosis: a novel mechanism of disease propagation by Aspergillus fumigatus.

Amar Safdar1, Martin P Dommers, Rohit Talwani, Charlotte R Thompson.   

Abstract

We describe an immunocompetent woman who had refractory, invasive sphenoid sinus Aspergillus fumigatus infection for which there was radiologic evidence of intracranial perineural spread. The patient responded to a combination of antifungal and adjuvant recombinant cytokine therapy.
