  • Title: Coccidioides species antifungal susceptibility testing: Experience from a large healthcare system in the endemic region.
    Author: Zangeneh TT, Lainhart WD, Wiederhold NP, Al-Obaidi MM.
    Journal: Med Mycol; 2023 Oct 05; 61(10):. PubMed ID: 37804176.
    Abstract:
    The clinical utility of Coccidioides species antifungal susceptibility testing (AST) remains unclear. This study describes the clinical course of eight patients with severe or chronic coccidioidomycosis and subsequent Coccidioides AST. We present the clinical manifestations, antifungal treatment regimens, and clinical outcomes for these patients. The role of antifungal susceptibility in the management of coccidioidomycosis remains unknown. This report presents cases of complex coccidioidomycosis where clinicians elected to conduct antifungal susceptibility testing as part of the treatment approach.
