Successful treatment of Ochroconis gallopavum infection in an immunocompetent host.

J W Hollingsworth1, S Shofer, A Zaas.   

Abstract

Ochroconis gallopavum, a dematiaceous fungus, is a rare cause disease in immunocompromised patients and epidemic encephalitis in poultry. We report the first case of active O. gallopavum pulmonary infection in an immunocompetent host with rapid and complete response to oral antifungal therapy.
