Management and Outcome in a Case of Cerebral Phaeohyphomycosis Due to Rhinocladiella Mackenziei in an Immunocompetent Individual (Colorado Convention Center | Exhibit Hall B-E) - Mar 8, 2024 - Abstract #AAN2024AAN_2242; Initial management involved empirical therapy for brain abscess including antibiotics (ceftriaxone, vancomycin, metronidazole) and dexamethasone, along with antiseizure medication (levetiracetam)...The treatment protocol was then adjusted based on fungal culture results to targeted therapy with intravenous liposomal amphotericin B. Subsequent MRI showed recurrence of the right parietal lesion and the emergence of a smaller lesion...This case highlights the potential for successful management of cerebral phaeohyphomycosis with a combination of surgical and medical therapies, including the use of triazole-class antifungal drugs like posaconazole and isavuconazole. Given its rarity, with only 42 cases reported globally, further research is needed to inform strategies for managing this severe infection.
