Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis was detected at postmortem examination of an 8-year-old Quarter Horse mare that had a history of diarrhea, laminitis, and bilateral nasal discharge. A diagnosis of Ehrlichia risticii infection was made on the basis of clinical signs of diarrhea and pyrexia, high
Intestinal aspergillosis is an infection with a very high death rate especially in leukemic patients. Here we describe a case of a 46 years old woman with acute myeloid leukemia (LAM M5) who developed intestinal primary aspergillosis. This patient was diagnosed with LAM M5 through bone marrow
Invasive tracheobronchial aspergillosis that is entirely limited or predominantly confined to tracheobronchial lesions is a relatively rare form of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. Extended parenchymal opacities that are radiological manifestations of invasive aspergillosis sometimes occur
Chronic nodular disseminated aspergillosis caused the death of a 9-month-old mynah bird (Gracula religiosa intermedia). The disease was diagnosed at postmortem examination, although it was suspected in the terminal state. It was unresponsive to various antibiotics and sulfonamides. Clinical signs
We report two immunocompromised infants aged six and four months with invasive gastrointestinal aspergillosis. Both patients presented with weight loss and diarrhea. The underlying disorders were combined immunodeficiency and transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy. The diagnosis of
A 56-year-old man was admitted because of diarrhea, cough, weight loss, and disturbance of consciousness. He had been diagnosed as having ankylosing spondylitis at 18-years old. The spondylitis progressed until there was complete rigidity of the spine including the neck, hip and knee joints. Human
BACKGROUND
Although amphotericin was the gold standard in the treatment of invasive aspergillosis in transplant recipients, nephrotoxicity and lack of efficacy often limits its use. Itraconazole is better tolerated but less efficacious and influences immunosuppressant trough levels significantly. We
BACKGROUND
Despite the use of new, effective drugs, the disseminated invasive aspergillosis often remains lethal in neutropenic patients. Diagnosis is difficult because early symptoms are nonspecific. New tools could help in diagnosis and lead to early surgery when needed.
METHODS
A neutropenic
Aspergillus species are ubiquitous in nature; however, infection is uncommon, except in immunocompromised or immunosuppressed hosts. We present the case of a 71-year-old woman with a history of human immunodeficiency virus infection who presented with fever, weight loss, and diarrhea, posteriorly
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is a world rare disease with a prevalence between 1 and 2%. It presents in moderate-severe asthma and cistic fibrosis patients. The diagnosis is made in the basis of Rossenberg and Greenberg criteria that can be essential or non essential. We present the case
Background: Intestinal aspergillosis (IA) is a rare entity primarily discovered in immunocompromised patients. Because of its low incidence, IA is not considered routinely in the differential of abdominal pain, distension, and diarrhea. A systematic characterization of demographics,
BACKGROUND
Invasive Aspergillus commonly involves the lungs, but can also affect other organs such as the skin, adrenal glands, central nervous system, liver, spleen and the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal aspergillosis is rare and is most often discovered in immunocompromised patients.
We report a fatal case of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in a severely ill neonate and review 43 additional cases of invasive aspergillosis reported from 1955 through 1996 that occurred during the first 3 months of life. Eleven of the 44 patients had primary cutaneous aspergillosis, 10 had
Diphtheric aspergillosis tracheitis is an uncommon syndrome described in human pathology, usually associated with immunosuppression in the affected individuals. Interestingly, no comparative/equivalent cases were found in domestic animals. This report describes the pathological and mycological
Graft-versus-host disease after liver transplantation complicated by systemic aspergillosis with pancarditis. Can J Gastroenterol 2000;14(7):637-640. Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a common complication after bone marrow transplantation, with characteristic rash and diarrhea being the
