Scedosporium prolificans, a multi-resistant fungus, from a U.K. AIDS patient.

V Hopwood1, E G Evans, J Matthews, D W Denning.   

Abstract

We report the first isolation of Scedosporium prolificans (inflatum) in the U.K. The patient, with advanced AIDS and neutropenia, had respiratory tract colonisation over many months without invasive disease despite neutropenia, while on itraconazole therapy. The organism was resistant in vitro to all licensed systemic antifungal agents tested.
