Nocardiose cérébrale et pulmonaire à Nocardia abscessus chez un patient algérien immunocompétent
2018
International audience; Nocardial brain abscess is often occurring in immunocompromised patients. It is uncommon in immunocompetent individuals. Here, the authors describe a case of cerebral and pulmonary nocardiosis mimicking a metastatic tumor in an apparently health 40-year-old Algerian male. The patient presented multiple brain abscess revealed by inaugural epileptic seizure. He was afebrile and presented with left hemiparesis. Staging imaging showed a nodular lung lesion in the apical segment of the right lower lobe. The patient underwent double craniotomy for resection of the lesion. Culture of the resected specimen isolated Nocardia abscessus. The patient was initially started on int…
Génotypage d’ Exophiala dermatitidis par polymorphisme des microsatellites et suivi de la colonisation des patients atteints de mucoviscidose
2016
De nombreux micromycetes peuvent coloniser et infecter les voies respiratoires des patients atteints de mucoviscidose. Les « levures noires » du genre Exophiala sont retrouvees chez 2 a 20 % de ces patients et des cas d’infections pulmonaires prouvees ont ete decrits. L’espece Exophiala dermatitidis represente plus de 90 % des souches isolees de ces patients. L’objectif de ce travail a ete de developper une technique de genotypage d’E. dermatitidis par analyse du polymorphisme de microsatellites, et de l’appliquer aux souches de patients atteints de mucoviscidose suivis au CHRU de Besancon colonises par E. dermatitidis . Treize marqueurs microsatellites ont ete identifies et testes sur un p…
Identification of cryptic Candida species by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, not all MALDI-TOF systems are the same: focus on the C. parapsilosis specie…
2016
Data about the performance of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry against cryptic Candida species are limited. According to our findings within the C. parapsilosis species complex, microbiologists should be aware that the choice of the instrument is critical for accurate species identification due to the risk of misidentification in the clinical setting.
