摘要
Aspergillus peritonitis is a rare, potentially fatal complication of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). We report the successful treatment of refractory fungal peritonitis in an 8-year-old girl treated by peritoneal dialysis for 3.3 years. This is the second report of Aspergillus thermomutatus (telemorph: Neosartorya pseudofischeri) in humans. Comprehensive treatment included early removal of the CAPD catheter, the use of liposomal amphotericin 13, and the use of itraconazole.
