Fatal fungal peritonitis in an adolescent on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis: association with deferoxamine.

M Nakamura1, W B Weil, D B Kaufman.   

Abstract

An unusual case of Rhizopus microsporus (mucormycosis) fungal infection in a teenage boy on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is presented. Premortem cultures were negative and the patient developed a rapidly disseminated fatal infection. The patient was being treated with deferoxamine (DFO) for iron and aluminum overload. An argument is made for a probable association between DFO and this fatal fungal infection in patients with end-stage renal disease.
