Popis:	We present a case of a 61-year-old Caucasian woman who was hospitalized with fever on day 176 after a matched unrelated stem cell transplant for acute myelogenous leukemia. She developed hemorrhagic bullae on the skin of her right thigh, and both blood cultures and skin biopsy confirmed Fusarium proliferatum. Despite antifungal therapy, her condition worsened and she died while on comfort-only measures.
