Rash in a Child Born with Reduced Mass: Skin Aspergillosis
Author(s): Kushal Jaiswal*
The incidence of several invasive fungal infections has increased over the past forty years, including primary cutaneous aspergillosis (PCA). We present a case of an infant who was born at an incredibly low birth weight and was later found to have cutaneous aspergillosis. This case illustrates the risk factors and medical advances associated with neonatal PCA. Additionally, we discuss the use of serum galactomannan testing and combined amphotericin B and voriconazole therapy. Early recognition of PCA-related injuries is necessary to ensure quick identification and care, potentially preventing scattering with the best outcomes.
