    Journal: Transpl Infect Dis; 2010 Jun; 12(3):273-6. PubMed ID: 20070621.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a patient with cystic fibrosis who underwent lung transplant and developed Aspergillus endocarditis and cutaneous relapse. Long-term survival was achieved with surgical and prolonged antifungal treatment. This case report emphasizes the recommendation of life-long antifungal treatment in transplant recipients who survive an episode of fungal endocarditis.
