Sporothrix schenckii meningitis in a farmer with Hodgkin's disease.

G E Ewing, G J Bosl, P K Peterson.   

Abstract

A fatal case of chronic meningeal sporotrichosis occurring as an opportunistic infection in a patient with Hodgkin's disease is presented. A pulmonary source of infection was identified at autopsy. The diagnostic importance of the isolation of Sporothrix schenckii from cerebrospinal fluid, even if only from a single specimen, is stressed.
