Abstract
MARIN FRANCO, Antonio José et al. Clinical course of micosis produced by exophiala xenobiotica in renal transplanted patient at the University Hospital of Burgos. Rev. colom. nefrol. [online]. 2019, vol.6, n.1, pp.63-68. ISSN 2500-5006. https://doi.org/10.22265/acnef.6.1.324.
Mycosis by exophiala xenobiotica comprise a broad clinical spectrum in immunosuppressed patients, from localized to disseminated infections. They are a recognized etiology of phaeohyphomycosis, currently considered as emerging fungal infections in transplanted solid organ recipients. We present 2 cases of mycosis by exophiala xenobiotica in kidney transplant recipients, a localized cutaneous mycosis and a systemic infection with central nervous system involvement.
