급성골수성백혈병 환자에서Amphotericin B와 Fluconazole로 치료된 Trichosporon beigelii진균혈증 1례 = A Case of trichosporonbeigelii Fungemia Treated with Amphotericin B and Fluconazole ina Patient with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Trichosporon beigelii is a causative agent of white piedra, an superficial hair shaft infection in immunocompetent individuals, and rarely of disseminated trichosporonosis in immunocompromised patients especially in neutropenic patients with leukemia. Trichosporon infections in immunocompromised patients are frequently fatal despite therapy with amphotericin B. We describe an acute myelogenous leukemia patient with T. beigelii fungemia after remission induction chemotherapy who was successfully treated with amphotericin B and fluconazole.
