Serodiagnostic Studies in an Immunocompetent Individual Infected withEncephalitozoon cuniculi

disseminated nocardiosis in an immunocompetent individual infected with nocardia brasiliensis, an opportunistic agent

conclusions combination therapy with surgical excision has a synergistic effect and appears to be the best treatment for extended lesions. however, new potent antibacterial drugs may help to improve the management of such infections when there are sufficient data on their in vitro activity. introduction nocardia species are described as opportunistic pathogens that mainly cause pulmonary nocard...

orbital mucormycosis in an immunocompetent individual.

background: orbital mucormycosis caused by zygomycetes is a rare and fatal infection that generally affects the patients who  are  immunocompromised.  despite  antifungal  therapy  and  aggressive  surgical  intervention,  mucormycosis  can cause serious and rapidly fatal infections if delayed diagnosis or therapeutic management occurs. here, we report orbital mucormycosis in a healthy boy, wit...

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...

CNS toxoplasmosis in an immunocompetent individual.

Toxoplasmosis is a serious and life-threatening disease in humans with a high prevalence in immunocompromised persons. The disease has a wide spectrum, depending on the immune status of the person. A CNS manifestation of toxoplasmosis in an immunocompetent person is very rare and often undetected. Our case of CNS toxoplasmosis in an immunocompetent person emphasizes the radiological diagnosis, ...
