Two cases of cerebral aspergillosis successfully treated with voriconazole

V de Lastours et al. Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis. 2003 May.

Abstract

Described here are two cases of cerebral aspergillosis successfully treated with voriconazole after the failure of first-line treatment with amphotericin B deoxycholate. In both cases, clinical and radiological cure was achieved within 6 weeks. Voriconazole should be considered as first-line therapy for cerebral aspergillosis.
