| Core Tip |
We present the case of a 19-year-old girl who developed Rhizopus microsporus (R. microsporus) lung infection without any known immunodeficiency. Due to the early detection of the R. microsporus in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid by metagenomics next generation sequencing, promptly anti-mucor therapy was started. A new attempt of a combination therapy of intravenous, inhalation, and local airway perfusion of amphotericin B was then performed, which showed a good therapeutic effect. |
