An increasing number of uncommon fungal infections have been reported in this era of antifungal prophylaxis. Coprinopsis cinerea is a rare pathogen that causes opportunistic infections in the immunocompromised patients, including HSCT recipients and is associated with very high mortality rates. Herein, we present a successfully treated pediatric HSCT patient with breakthrough pulmonary IFI caused by Coprinopsis cinerea despite posaconazole, prophylaxis using multidisciplinary approaches.Keywords: Coprinopsis cinerea, Hormographiella aspergillata, invasive fungal infection, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, leukemia, case report |
