摘要
We present a case of a premature infant who developed a cutaneous infection with a pigmented fungus that subsequently spread systemically. We discuss the diagnosis and management of this difficult condition. Fungal culture is slow and sensitivity testing is technically difficult. Often, therapy must be initiated based on the histologic appearance of the fungus.
