Abstract

Fungal infections are often reported, but Trichosporon infection is very rare. A 78-year-old man with adult T-cell leukemia complicated with pulmonary infections is presented. Bronchial exudate culture revealed many yeast-like colonies, which were morphologically and biochemically identified as Trichosporon pullulans.
