Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and death secondary to Cyberlindnera fabianii

Cyberlindnera fabianii is a yeast present in soil rarely associated with invasive infection. Due to advanced diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, pathogenicity is increasingly recognized. A 37-year-old male with B cell lymphoma on rituximab developed multiple organ dysfunction syndrome secondary t...

description Cyberlindnera fabianii is a yeast present in soil rarely associated with invasive infection. Due to advanced diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, pathogenicity is increasingly recognized. A 37-year-old male with B cell lymphoma on rituximab developed multiple organ dysfunction syndrome secondary to C. fabianii bacteremia. Specialized species identification techniques were required after failure of standard methods. Despite extracroporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) the patient died on day 26 after admission.
