Scedosporiosis/lomentosporiosis observational study (SOS): Clinical significance of Scedosporium species identification

Didier Bronnimann et al.

Summary: The study found that different species of Scedosporium fungi lead to distinct clinical presentations and outcomes. Infections caused by S. apiospermum were associated with malignancies and cutaneous involvement, while S. boydii infections were more related to solid organ transplantation, cerebral infections, fungemia, and early death. Additionally, infections caused by L. prolificans exhibited a different clinical pattern, with more neutropenic patients, breakthrough infections, fungemia, and disseminated infections.

Global guideline for the diagnosis and management of rare mould infections: an initiative of the European Confederation of Medical Mycology in cooperation with the International Society for Human and Animal Mycology and the American Society for Microbiology

Martin Hoenigl et al.

Summary: With an increasing number of patients requiring intensive care or being immunosuppressed, infections caused by molds other than Aspergillus spp or Mucorales are on the rise. Antifungal prophylaxis has been effective, but breakthrough infections by other rare molds are also increasing. Regional differences should be considered in providing practical clinical decision guidance.
