Title: Candida tropicalis arthritis - assessment of amphotericin B therapy. Author: Farrell JB, Person DA, Lidsky MD, Hopfer RL, Musher DM. Journal: J Rheumatol; 1978; 5(3):267-71. PubMed ID: 748551. Abstract: A 28 year old male heroin addict developed Candida tropicalis infection of the knee joint in association with candidemia. Assessment of amphotericin B therapy was facilitated by the determination of serum and synovial fluid amphotericin B concentrations using a radiometric bio-assay method. The results indicate that adequate synovial fluid drug levels were achieved with intravenous systemic therapy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
