Combination therapy of voriconazole and terbinafine for disseminated fusariosis: case report and literature review.

Shojiro Inano1, Masahiro Kimura, Jun Iida, Nobuyoshi Arima.   

Abstract

Fusarium spp. cause a broad spectrum of infection and are relatively resistant to most antifungal agents, leading to unfavorable prognosis, especially in immunocompromised patients. Several reports have shown synergism among amphotericin B, voriconazole (VRC), terbinafine (TRB), and other antifungal agents in vitro, but the most efficacious combination remains to be elucidated. We report the first case of disseminated Fusarium solani infection successfully treated by combination therapy of VRC and TRB accompanied by surgical resection of endocardial lesions. We also review 15 case reports of combination antifungal therapy for fusariosis and 6 case reports of Fusarium endocarditis.
