The sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) ribosomal DNA (rDNA) domain data obtained by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis with 18S rDNA and fingerprinting (M13) for clinical and environmental strains of Pseudallescheria boydii (anamorph, Scedosporium apiospermum) were compared to those for related species of Pseudallescheria, Petriella, and Scedosporium. The infraspe...
Scedosporium species show decreased susceptibility to the majority of systemic antifungal drugs. Acquired resistance is likely to disseminate differentially with the mode of exchange of genetic material between lineages. Inter- and intraspecific diversities of Scedosporium species were analyzed for three partitions (rDNA internal transcribed spacer gene [ITS], partial β-tubulin gene, and amplif...
BACKGROUND Pseudallescheria boydii pneumonia is rarely reported among immunocompetent patients. CASE REPORT We report a case of a 62 year old white female with pseudallescheria boydii pneumonia. The patient was non-immunocompromised, had a history of mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection prior to presentation. After successful response to initial antitubercular therapy, the patient deve...
Pseudallescheria boydii is a rare opportunistic microorganism that usually infects immunosuppressed hosts. In this patient with cerebral infection by P boydii, imaging findings included enhancement of the ependyma of a lateral ventricle and of the caudate nucleus.
Pseudallescheria boydii KNU13-2 was isolated from crop field soil and identified by analysis of internal transcribed spacer regions of rDNA and morphological characteristics. In the literature, P. boydii has been mentioned as a human pathogen. This is the first record of P. boydii isolated from crop field soil in Korea.
We report a case of disseminated Scedosporium/Pseudallescheria infection due to Pseudallescheria boydii sensu stricto after lung transplantation in a patient with cystic fibrosis. Dissemination occurred under voriconazole. Despite surgery and combination therapy with voriconazole, caspofungin, and terbinafine, the patient died 8 months after transplantation. Previously reported cases are reviewed.
In order to develop new approaches to treatment of infections due to Pseudallescheria boydii, the in vitro antifungal activity of amphotericin B alone and in combination with miconazole, itraconazole, and fluconazole was studied. Combinations of amphotericin B and antifungal azoles were synergistic, additive, or indifferent in their interaction against P. boydii. Antagonism was not observed.
Pseudallescheria boydii and its asexual state Scedosporium apiospermum is a well known opportunistic pathogen among immunocompromised patients. However it is rare in immunocompetent patients. The optimum management of this infection is still not clear. The new azoles may show better efficacy than amphotericin B and additional surgery may play a pivotal role. We report a case of Pseudallescheria...
