Post endodontic Aspergillosis in an immunocompetent individual
UNLABELLED Non-invasive aspergillosis in immunocompetent individuals subsequent to post endodontic treatment can involve the maxillary antrum. An early and accurate diagnosis will aid in prompt and effective treatment. A 35 year old female patient reported with a painful nasomaxillary swelling. Previous records revealed the failure of the endodontic treatment of maxillary left second premolar w...
متن کاملBilateral renal aspergillosis in an immunocompetent host
Bilateral primary renal aspergillosis is rare in immunocompetent hosts. The clinical presentation of Aspergillus pyelonephritis is similar to that of bacterial pyelonephritis. Here, we present an immunocompetent patient with primary bilateral renal abscesses due to Aspergillus fumigatus.
متن کاملSemi-Invasive Aspergillosis in an Immunocompetent Host
A 54 year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with dyspnea, dry cough and fever. Chest X-ray revealed pneumonic infiltration with air bronchograms involving all zones of right hemithorax. We observed radiological and clinical progress despite ceftriaxone, clarithromicin and bronchodilator for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The gram staining of bronchoalveolar lavage showed funga...
متن کاملPrimary Cutaneous Aspergillosis in an Immunocompetent Patient
We present a 32-year-old woman with primary cutaneous aspergillosis and an apparently normal immune status. She is a dietitian who carried out research on Aspergillus contamination of palm oil over a six-month period, during which she apparently shaved her axillae and perineum using a safety razor blade. She presented with nodular lesions, which became extensive ulcers after an attempt at incis...
متن کاملPrimary cutaneous aspergillosis in an immunocompetent host.
Sir, Primary cutaneous aspergillosis is rare and when seen it is usually associated with compromised immune status of the host. The lesions usually occur at the site of trauma, e.g. in a sick patient at the site of armboards, tapes or intravenous catheters. The fungus, Aspergillus, is a saprophytic dimorphic mould present in soil, decaying vegetation and organic debris. Clinically it involves t...
