    Author: Rao K, Saha V.
    Journal: Pediatr Hematol Oncol; 2000; 17(5):425-7. PubMed ID: 10914055.
    Abstract:
    An 11-year-old boy underwent a matched unrelated bone marrow transplant for refractory acute myeloid leukemia. He developed invasive aspergillus pneumonia and endocarditis post-transplant. The fungal endocarditis was successfully eradicated with liposomal amphotericin at the dose of 10 mg/kg/day. Surgical intervention was not required and no serious side effects of liposomal amphotericin were observed at this dose.
