Trichosporon türleri, sistemik veya mukoza ile ilişkili ya da beyaz piedrayı da içine alan yüzeyel enfeksiyonlara neden olabileceği gibi invazif fungal enfeksiyonlara da neden olabilir. Özellikle hematolojik maligniteleri ve solid organ tümörleri olan veya transplant alıcısı immünosüprese hastalarda fırsatçı bir invazif enfeksiyon etkeni olabilirler. Trichosporon türlerine bağlı gelişen invazif enfeksiyonlarda son yıllarda artış gözlenmiştir.Trikosporonozlu hastaların tedavisi, kullanılan antifungal ajanlar hakkında etkene yönelik sınırlı veri nedeniyle sorun teşkil etmektedir. Bu bildiride COVID-19+İnfluenza nedeniyle uzun süreli yoğun bakım yatış sonrası gelişen invaziv trikosporonoz enfeksiyonu sonucu mortal seyreden bir olgu sunulmuştur.

INVASIVE TRICHOSPORON INFECTION IN A SARS-COV-2 AND INFLUENZA COINFECTED PATIENT: A CASE REPORT

Öz

Trichosporon species can cause systemic or mucous-related or superficial infections including white piedra as well as invasive fungal infections. They can be an opportunistic invasive infectious agent, especially in immunosuppressed patients with hematological malignancies and solid organ tumors or transplant recipients. Invasive infections due to Trichosporon species have increased in recent years. The treatment of patients with trichosporonosis poses a problem due to limited data on the antifungal agents used. In this report, a case of mortality due to invasive trichosporonosis infection developed after a long-term hospitalization in intensive care unit due to COVID-19 + Influenza is presented.
