    Author: Goodman D, Pamer E, Jakubowski A, Morris C, Sepkowitz K.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 2002 Aug 01; 35(3):E35-6. PubMed ID: 12115115.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of invasive trichosporonosis due to Trichosporon beigelii originating in the left wrist of a bone marrow transplant recipient who was receiving caspofungin acetate as prophylaxis against invasive Aspergillus infection. While the patient's neutrophil count was recovering, treatment with fluconazole and amphotericin B lipid complex resulted in a complete clinical response.
