Can Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) Eradicate Fecal Colonization With Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE)?
Higher Risk for All-cause Mortality of<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>Bacteremia in Patients with Non-Dialysis Dependent Chronic Kidney Disease
Insidious Onset Multifocal Chest Wall and Spinal Abscess Caused by Previous Candidemia: A Case Report
Abscess formation due to Candida albicans infection is extremely rare. Radiological diagnosis of an
atypical abscess at an uncommon site is challenging. In this study, we present a case of insidious onset
multifocal chest wall and spinal abscess after candidemia in a young woman in the intensive care
unit due to postpartum bleeding
Angioinvasive Mucormycosis Mimicking Mass and Pulmonary Thromboembolism in a Patient with Myelodysplastic Syndrome: A Case Report
Mucormycosis encompasses a range of fungal infections that can impact various organs. Although
pulmonary mucormycosis is relatively rare, it poses a significant threat, particularly to
individuals with compromised immune systems. Pulmonary mucormycosis presents with various
radiological manifestations. Notably, the involvement of the angioinvasive pulmonary artery
in pulmonary mucormycosis cases has seldom been documented. In this report, we
showcase the radiological characteristics of angioinvasive mucormycosis, which can mimic
pulmonary thromboembolism or a pulmonary artery tumor, in a patient diagnosed with myelodysplastic
syndrome
