Abstract

We present a case of chronic meningitis due to the mold Aureobasidium proteae. Clinical features, the disease course, as well as the diagnostic methods and optimal treatment options are discussed. This case confirms the neuroinvasiveness of A. proteae and introduces it as a new human pathogen.
