摘要
Cladophialophora bantiana brain abscesses are rare, but are frequently and quickly lethal in transplanted patients. We report the case of a 63-year-old man who had undergone lung transplantation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and presented with headaches and a neurological deficit. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple brain abscesses. C.bantiana was identified by DNA sequencing performed directly on cerebral tissue obtained by surgical biopsy. After 6months of antifungal treatment, the brain abscesses were replaced by ischemic sequelae. The patient died suddenly 2months later from a pulmonary bacterial infection. This is the second reported case of C.bantiana brain abscesses in a lung transplant recipient, to our knowledge, who experienced a long survival period with medical antifungal treatment alone. We review the literature and discuss our treatment.
