  • Title: Case report. Successful treatment of cutaneous Paecilomyces lilacinus infection with oral itraconazole in an immune competent host.
    Author: Gottlieb T, Atkins BL.
    Journal: Mycoses; 2001 Dec; 44(11-12):513-5. PubMed ID: 11820267.
    Abstract:
    A 59-year-old woman presented to us with an eight-month history of Paecilomyces lilacinus soft tissue infection. She was treated with a six-month course of oral itraconazole. The lesion resolved fully without the need for adjunctive surgery. Susceptibility testing confirmed susceptibility to itraconazole. This is the second case of confirmed P. lilacinus soft tissue infection in an immunocompetent host treated with oral itraconazole alone.
