Voriconazole treatment of disseminated paecilomyces infection in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Craig A Martin1, Sara Roberts, Richard N Greenberg.   

Abstract

We describe a patient with poorly controlled, multidrug-resistant human immunodeficiency virus disease who developed >20 skin lesions caused by Paecilomyces lilacinus. The lesions failed to improve during treatment with oral itraconazole, amphotericin B, and amphotericin B lipid complex but improved during treatment with voriconazole.
