Resumen

Scedosporium apiospermum puede causar infecciones pulmonares en individuos inmunocompetentes con bronquiectasia. El diagnóstico precoz y el tratamiento antifúngico combinado, incluidas las terapias inhaladas, mejoran los resultados de esta rara infección pulmonar por hongos.

Área de la Ciencia:

Micología médica
Pulmonología
Enfermedades infecciosas

Sus antecedentes:

Scedosporium apiospermum es un patógeno fúngico oportunista emergente, que afecta principalmente a las personas inmunocomprometidas.
Las infecciones pulmonares por S. apiospermum son difíciles debido a los síntomas no específicos y la resistencia antifúngica.
Las enfermedades pulmonares estructurales, como la bronquiectasia, son cada vez más reconocidas como factores de riesgo, incluso en huéspedes inmunocompetentes.

Palabras clave:

Tratamiento antifúngico Las bronquiectasias infección por hongos

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation,...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis II

Pulmonary Tuberculosis II

Tuberculosis, or TB, is a bacterial infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While its primary impact is on the lungs, leading to pulmonary tuberculosis, it can also affect various other organs, a condition referred to as extrapulmonary tuberculosis.
Here is a detailed explanation of its pathophysiology:
Transmission: The process begins when a person inhales droplet nuclei containing M. tuberculosis. These are typically released into the air when an individual with pulmonary or...

Cystic Fibrosis: Management

Cystic Fibrosis: Management

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder that predominantly affects individuals of Northern European descent, occurring at a rate of 1 in 3500. It is caused by a genetic mutation in a gene on chromosome 7, most commonly the ΔF508 mutation, that codes for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. This results in thicker mucus secretions and obstruction pathologies in multiple organs, including the lungs and sinuses.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease-III: Symptoms and Complications.

Understanding the variety of primary symptoms and systemic complications that characterize chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is crucial for healthcare professionals.
Symptoms of COPD can be classified as primary or systemic. Primary symptoms relate to reduced airflow, while systemic or extrapulmonary symptoms relate to COPD's broader impact on the body.
