Hydrothorax in association with Scopulariopsis brumptii in an AIDS patient in Chennai, India
Over the past decade, an increasing number of opportunistic fungal infections have been reported in immunocompromised subjects. Microascus spp. and their anamorphs Scopulariopsis spp. have been recovered from a wide geographical range. We report a case of Scopulariopsis brumptii in a 27-year-old man...

| description | Over the past decade, an increasing number of opportunistic fungal infections have been reported in immunocompromised subjects.
Microascus spp. and their anamorphs
Scopulariopsis spp. have been recovered from a wide geographical range. We report a case of
Scopulariopsis brumptii in a 27-year-old man with AIDS presenting with breathlessness, pericardial effusion and hydrothorax in Chennai, southern India, in February 2007. Because of respiratory arrest, the patient was intubated. However, the patient developed obstructive shock and died due to cardiac dysfunctions. This report underlines the need for a direct, intensive approach to investigations in immunocompromised patients, especially those with AIDS. |
