Disseminated Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex (MAC) infection is one of the relatively common opportunistic infections seen in severely immunocompromised AIDS patients. A constellation of clinical, laboratory, and pathological features involving multiple organ systems are often present in disseminated MAC infection but disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) has not been previous...
BACKGROUND Disseminated histoplasmosis is a rare fungal infection and most documented cases are in immune-compromised individuals such as those with acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome. OBJECTIVE To describe a case of disseminated histoplasmosis in an adolescent girl. METHOD We report a case of disseminated histoplasmosis in a 13-year-old adolescent girl. She was admitted for 16 days becaus...
Despite the long history of the worldwide use of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, a wide spectrum of adverse reactions has been observed in a small proportion of immunized infants; the most severe complication, disseminated BCGitis, is often fatal but exceedingly rare and is considered to result from host immunodeficiency. At present, CT scan, ultrasound, X-ray and bone marrow aspi...
Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungus Sporothrix schenckii, which can have a subacute or chronic course. This disease has a worldwide distribution and is an emerging infection in Europe, where it has become quite common. The most frequent method of transmission is traumatic inoculation. This polymorphic mycosis has 4 clinical forms: lymphocutaneous, fixed cutan...
BACKGROUND Cryptococcus neoformans is frequently present as an opportunistic pathogen mainly affecting immunocompromised populations. Disseminated C. neoformans infection in immunocompetent population is rare and usually involves lung and central nerve system. Cryptococcus from biologic samples can easily grow on routine fungal and bacterial culture media. Besides, cryptococcal latex agglutinat...
Fusarium infections are an important problem worldwide, commonly affecting immunocompromised individuals. We conducted a retrospective study in two Israeli tertiary medical centers of factors predisposing to infection by Fusarium spp. and their influence on the epidemiology and clinical outcome of this infection. Fusarium spp. were isolated from 89 patients with a median age of 57 years. Sixty-...
IFN-gamma releasing assays (IGRAs) such as T-SPOT.TB assay and QuantiFERON-TB In-Tube (QFT-GIT) have yielded promising results for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). However, little is known about the usefulness of these assays for diagnosing disseminated TB. We therefore compared their usefulness with traditional tests in patients with disseminated TB. All adult patients with suspected dissem...
Systemic infection with Cryptococcosis neoformans is described in a young man receiving maintenance haemodialysis. The organism was identified in thin sections of a cervical lymph node using resin embedding and silver staining. There were no predisposing factors other than uraemia. His clinical infection responded to the combination of oral 5-flucytosine and a total of 2.5 g of intravenous amph...
Eight years after diagnosis, 40% of MS patients develop a chronically progressive form. Annually we treat approximately 200 patients with progressive MS. Treatment consists of medication, i.e. agents that help to prevent future impairment, or interferon-beta injections, and intervals of mitoxantrone infusions (Novantrone(R)), and in some cases cyclic cyclophosphamide (Endoxan(R)) or nucleoside ...
The author describes the histories of three patients with panic-like episodes that turned out to be related to underlying, previously unsuspected tick-borne diseases. Each woman experienced symptoms that are not usual in panic disorder but are typical of neurological Lyme disease, including exquisite sensitivity to light, touch, and sounds, joint pain often in combination with cognitive changes...
