Scedosporium spp. are increasingly recognized as causes of resistant life-threatening
infections in immunocompromised patients. Scedosporium spp. also cause a wide spectrum …

Current knowledge on the opportunist Scedosporium apiospermum (teleomorph:
Pseudallescheria boydii), generated over a period of more than 120 years, is reviewed. The …

Scedosporium apiospermum and its teleomorph (sexual form) Pseudallescheria boydii are
ubiquitous saprophytic fungi, which under specific conditions, such as near‐drowning, may …

Objectives Current knowledge on infections caused by Scedosporium spp. and
Lomentospora prolificans in children is scarce. We therefore aim to provide an overview of …

Infections caused by members of the Pseudallescheria boydii species complex are currently
among the most common mould infections. These fungi show a particular tropism for the …

A 39-year-old healthy man developed a brain abscess weeks after a near-drowning
incident. Scedosporium apiospermum, the anamorph of Pseudallescheria boydii, was …

Pseudallescheria boydii has long been known to cause white grain mycetoma in
immunocompetent humans, but it has recently emerged as an opportunistic pathogen of …

Scedosporium/Lomentospora species exist as saprophytic moulds that can potentially lead
to serious infections in patients who have experienced near‐drowning incidents …

Background: Intracranial true mycotic aneurysms are uncommon and usually fatal. We report
two patients with basilar mycotic aneurysms due to Aspergillus species following surgical …

Since its discovery as an agent of mycetoma nearly a century ago, Pseudallescheria boydii
with its asexual (synanamorphic) form, Scedosporium apiospermum, is now recognized as …
