Fusarium solani in the post-transplant patient: an unusual fungus.

The incidence of fungal infections in post-transplant patients ranges from 2% to 50%, and more uncommon pathogens are being isolated. Earlier, the fungi seen were candida, aspergillus, and cryptococcus; and of late, histoplasma, coccidiodomycoses, and dematiaceous fungi are seen. In this article, a patient with invasive fusariosis is presented, and literature of this uncommon fungus is reviewed.
