摘要：

Paecilomyces lilacinus catheter-related fungemia in an immunocompromised child is reported. The presence Of a central venous catheter and the patient's immunocompromised status were felt to be predisposing factors for this unusual infection. To our knowledge, this is the first description of P. lilacinus catheter-related fungemia, and our patient may be the youngest reported patient with this mycosis who was cured.
