Systemic infection with Trichosporon capitatum in two patients with acute leukaemia.

D R Baird, M Harris, R Menon, R W Stoddart.   

Abstract

Trichosporon capitatum was isolated from the blood of two patients with acute leukaemia who were undergoing induction chemotherapy. Both patients died of their infections, and the fungus was cultured from their tissues after death. Systemic infection was proved by demonstrating the same pattern of fluorescein-labelled lectin staining of fungal elements in the tissues as was shown by the fungal isolates.
