ABSTRACT
Paecilomyces varioti, a fungus resembling penicillium spp, has been described in conjunction with impaired host defence or foreign body implants. We report a case of Paecilomyces varioti catheter-related fungemia that occurred during neutropenia in an allogeneic BMT patient receiving antifungal prophylaxis with fluconazole. Successful treatment was achieved by removal of central venous catheter, intravenous amphotericin B and oral itraconazole.
