A case of subarachnoid and intracerebral hemorrhages complicated by trichosporonosis

BACKGROUND: Trichosporonosis has an extremely poor prognosis. In this report, we describe a case of subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage due to a fungal aneurysm caused by Trichosporon. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 71-year-old woman who experienced subcortical hemorrhage developed a subarachn...

description BACKGROUND: Trichosporonosis has an extremely poor prognosis. In this report, we describe a case of subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage due to a fungal aneurysm caused by Trichosporon. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 71-year-old woman who experienced subcortical hemorrhage developed a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Endovascular parent artery occlusion was performed for a fungal aneurysm in the left posterior cerebral artery caused by Trichosporon. After surgery, voriconazole and liposomal amphotericin B were administered. The patient died of massive left putamen hemorrhage. CONCLUSION: Effective treatment for intracranial hemorrhage due to trichosporonosis has not yet been established and an accumulation of cases is required.
