Article Synopsis
- Recent cases showing resistance to antifungals complicate treatment strategies, highlighted by a novel case of Coniochaeta hoffmannii fungemia in a woman with acute myeloid leukemia following stem cell transplantation.
- The patient struggled with infection despite broad-spectrum antibiotics and micafungin, but her condition improved after switching to voriconazole, suggesting that disruption of skin/mucosal barriers combined with antimicrobial use may increase the risk of invasive fungal infections.
