| Core Tip |
Disseminated histoplasmosis in immunocompetent populations presenting solely as liver involvement and progressing to liver failure is rare, and there is no reported case of histoplasmosis cured by liver transplantation. Voriconazole is commonly used for fungal infections, but its experience in treating histoplasmosis is limited. In our report, we detail the case of the world’s first patient to receive liver transplantation surgery for liver failure caused by hepatic histoplasmosis, characterized by a complex and varied progression. After a comprehensive analysis, the patient was ultimately diagnosed and achieved complete recovery with the surgery and voriconazole. |
