Resumen

Descripción general del contenido del recurso.

Trichosporon asahii, an emerging opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised, catheterized patients, rarely causes urinary tract infections (UTI), accounting for only 0.2% of fungal UTIs. We report a catheter-associated- UTI in a 77-year-old male with diabetes and stage IV chronic-kidney-disease who developed fever and pyuria on day eight of hospitalization. Urine culture isolated T. asahii resistant to fluconazole, amphotericin B, and echinocandins but susceptible to voriconazole, with clinical improvement, highlighting diagnostic challenges in distinguishing colonization from true infection.
