Resolution of invasive central nervous system aspergillosis in a transplant recipient

H Khoury et al. Bone Marrow Transplant. 1997 Jul.

Abstract

Central nervous system (CNS) aspergillosis carries a uniformly poor prognosis in bone marrow transplant recipients. Amphotericin B can be bound to lipid carriers leading to improvement of its therapeutic index. We describe the successful medical management of CNS aspergillosis in an allogeneic bone marrow transplant patient with administration of Amphotericin B Lipid Complex.
