Abstract
SUMMARYAlthough Scedosporium species and Lomentospora prolificans are uncommon causes of invasive fungal diseases (IFDs), these infections are associated with high mortality and are costly to treat with a limited armamentarium of antifungal drugs. In light of recent advances, including in the area of new antifungals, the present review provides a timely and updated overview of these IFDs, with a focus on the taxonomy, clinical epidemiology, pathogenesis and host immune response, disease manifestations, diagnosis, antifungal susceptibility, and treatment. An expansion of hosts at risk for these difficult-to-treat infections has emerged over the last two decades given the increased use of, and broader population treated with, immunomodulatory and targeted molecular agents as well as wider adoption of antifungal prophylaxis. Clinical presentations differ not only between genera but also across the different Scedosporium species. L. prolificans is intrinsically resistant to most currently available antifungal agents, and the prognosis of immunocompromised patients with lomentosporiosis is poor. Development of, and improved access to, diagnostic modalities for early detection of these rare mold infections is paramount for timely targeted antifungal therapy and surgery if indicated. New antifungal agents (e.g., olorofim, fosmanogepix) with novel mechanisms of action and less cross-resistance to existing classes, availability of formulations for oral administration, and fewer drug-drug interactions are now in late-stage clinical trials, and soon, could extend options to treat scedosporiosis/lomentosporiosis. Much work remains to increase our understanding of these infections, especially in the pediatric setting. Knowledge gaps for future research are highlighted in the review.

Abstract
Scedosporium spp. and Lomentospora prolificans are emerging non-Aspergillus filamentous fungi. The Scedosporiosis/lomentosporiosis Observational Study we previously conducted reported frequent fungal vascular involvement, including aortitis and peripheral arteritis. For this article, we reviewed 7 cases of Scedosporium spp. and L. prolificans arteritis from the Scedosporiosis/lomentosporiosis Observational Study and 13 cases from published literature. Underlying immunosuppression was reported in 70% (14/20) of case-patients, mainly those who had solid organ transplants (10/14). Osteoarticular localization of infection was observed in 50% (10/20) of cases; infections were frequently (7/10) contiguous with vascular infection sites. Scedosporium spp./Lomentospora prolificans infections were diagnosed in 9 of 20 patients ≈3 months after completing treatment for nonvascular scedosporiosis/lomentosporiosis. Aneurysms were found in 8/11 aortitis and 6/10 peripheral arteritis cases. Invasive fungal disease--related deaths were high (12/18 [67%]). The vascular tropism of Scedosporium spp. and L. prolificans indicates vascular imaging, such as computed tomography angiography, is needed to manage infections, especially for osteoarticular locations.

Primary spinal infections in patients with solid organ transplant: a systematic literature review and illustrative case. JOURNAL OF NEUROSURGERY: CASE LESSONS 2022; 3:CASE22157. [PMID: 35855206 PMCID: PMC9237658 DOI: 10.3171/case22157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 04/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary spinal infections (PSIs) are a group of uncommon but serious infectious diseases considered more prevalent and aggressive among patients with chronic immunocompromised states. Association of PSI and solid organ transplant has not been systematically analyzed. The authors performed a systematic review analyzing clinical presentation and mortality of patients with PSI in the setting of solid organ transplant. OBSERVATIONS PSIs in patients with immunosuppressive therapy, such as those with solid organ transplant, may behave differently in terms of epidemiology, clinical presentation, and outcomes compared with nonimmunosuppressed patients. Overall PSI in solid organ transplant patients is associated with a high rate of neurological compromise, postoperative complications, and mortality. LESSONS Accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment of PSI require a multidisciplinary effort. Localized pain is the most frequently reported symptom associated with PSI. As opposed to PSI in patients without transplant, inflammatory and infectious markers such as white blood cells and C-reactive protein are often not elevated. Furthermore, the causative microorganism profile varies significantly when compared to pyogenic spinal infection in patients without transplant. Aspergillus species was responsible for spondylodiscitis in transplant patients in more than 50% of cases, and the incidence of Aspergillus infection is projected to rise in the coming years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The literature is lacking on the incidence and management of pyogenic spondylodiscitis (PS) following routine elective surgical procedures. This study aimed to analyze the presentation and treatment outcome in patients with PS following nonspinal surgeries at a tertiary care center with a minimum follow-up of 12 months. METHODS The demographic, clinical-radiologic features, and treatment outcomes in 40 patients with a diagnosis of PS following nonspinal surgical procedures were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS The mean age at presentation was 36.4 ± 11.8 years, with 80% of patients being female. The common surgical procedures associated with PS were cesarean delivery (30%), gastric sleeve surgery (12.5%), and dilatation and curettage (12.5%). The tissue biopsy culture was positive in 82.5% of patients. A total of 26 patients (65%) were treated with conservative management and 14 patients (35%) were treated surgically. The mean pretreatment Core Outcome Measure Index score significantly decreased at 12 months (P < .0001) after treatment. The mean pretreatment erythrocyte sedimentation rate (P < .0001) and C-reactive protein (P < .0001) levels significantly decreased at 12 months after treatment. CONCLUSIONS With most patients with PS following nonspinal surgeries treated with conservative management, excellent clinical outcomes were achieved in all patients at 12 months after treatment. The diagnosis of PS should be considered in patients presenting with low back pain (LBP) with a recent history of undergoing a nonspinal surgical procedure. Patients who undergo surgical procedures are an important "at-risk" patient population, and early diagnosis and treatment can help achieve excellent clinical outcomes. Further studies are required to determine risk factors and possible perioperative precautions that can be taken to prevent PS in patients who undergo nonspine surgeries. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Pyogenic spondylodiscitis should be suspected in patients presenting with LBP after a recent non-spinal surgical procedure. Early diagnosis and treatment can help achieve excellent clinical outcomes in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to assess any relation between spondylitis and aortic aneurysmal disease by reviewing the current literature. METHODS A systematic search was undertaken using MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases till May 2019, for articles reporting on patients suffering from spondylitis and aortic aneurysm. RESULTS The most involved aortic segment was infrarenal aorta (56.9%). The lumbar vertebrae were more frequently affected (79.7%). Commonest symptoms were back pain (79.1%), fever (33.7%) and lower limb pain (29.1%). 55.8% of cases were diagnosed using computed tomography. The pathology was attributed to infectious causes in 25.1% of cases. 53.4% of patients were treated only for the aneurysm, 27.9% for both pathologies, while two patients solely for the vertebral disease. Endovascular aneurysm repair was chosen in 12.8% of cases. The 30-day mortality was 8.1% (7/86); mostly from vascular complications. CONCLUSIONS A synchronous spondylitis and aortic aneurysm may share common etiopathology, when an infectious or inflammatory cause is presented. The lumbar vertebrae are more frequently affected. Low quality data do not allow safe conclusion to suggest the best treatment option.

Abstract
Infectious complications after solid organ transplantation (SOT) are often more severe and remain a diagnostic challenge due to vague and atypical clinical presentations. Diagnostic performance of conventional diagnostic tools is frequently inadequate which may lead to delayed diagnosis with the risk of poorer outcomes. This literature review aimed to investigate the current evidence on the use of 18F-fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/computer tomography (CT) in infectious complications after SOT. Based on search in PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane databases, 13 articles and 46 case reports were included. For inclusion, articles were to include data on patients with infectious complications after SOT, and where FDG PET/CT was part of the work-up. Final searches were conducted on 02 September 2020. Overall, in the absence of initial diagnostic clues, FDG PET/CT should be considered as the imaging technique of choice as it may guide further investigations and eventually reveal the diagnosis in most of the patients. However, the available literature of the role of FDG PET/CT in SOT recipients with infectious complications is scarce and well-designed prospective studies including control groups are warranted to establish the role of FDG PET/C/ in SOT recipients. The main drawback of FDG PET/CT is the lack of ability to differentiate between cancer and infectious diseases which are both highly prevalent in this patient group. Accordingly, the main reasons for "false" results of FDG PET/CT is the misdiagnosis of cancer in benign inflammatory or infectious processes, information which nonetheless can be useful.

Abstract
Introduction: Lung transplant recipients are at the highest risk of infectious complications among all solid-organ transplant (SOT) recipients. In the current era, many standardized protocols in terms of diagnostic algorithms, prophylaxis, and therapeutic strategies have improved the management of the most common infectious complications. Conversely, diagnosis of rare infections can be particularly challenging and this can delay appropriate treatment.Areas covered: This article will review the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic and therapeutic management of certain rarely reported viral, fungal, bacterial and parasitic infections in lung transplant recipients.Expert opinion: Once the most frequent infections are excluded, clinical suspicion combined with molecular diagnostic methods such as targeted and broad-spectrum PCRs can allow diagnosis of a rare infection. A multidisciplinary team, including transplant pulmonologists, transplant infectious diseases specialists, microbiologists and pathologists is essential for prompt diagnosis and optimal therapeutic management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scedosporium species and Lomentospora prolificans (S/L) are the second most common causes of invasive mold infections following Aspergillus in lung transplant recipients. METHODS We assessed the current practices on management of S/L colonization/infection of the lower respiratory tract before and after lung transplantation in a large number of lung transplant centers through an international practice survey from October 2016 to March 2017. RESULTS A total of 51 respondents from 45 lung transplant centers (17 countries, 4 continents) answered the survey (response rate 58%). S/L colonization was estimated to be detected in candidates by 48% of centers. Only 18% of the centers used a specific medium to detect S/L colonization. Scedosporium spp. colonization was a contraindication to transplantation in 10% of centers whereas L prolificans was a contraindication in 31%; 22% of centers declared having had 1-5 recipients infected with S/L in the past 5 years. CONCLUSIONS This survey gives an overview of the current practices regarding S/L colonization and infection in lung transplant centers worldwide and underscores the need of S/L culture procedure standardization before implementing prospective studies.

Abstract
Scedosporiosis is an emerging fungal infection caused by Pseudallescheria/Scedosporium complex species (PSC). This pathogen has been drawn significant interest in recent years due to its worldwide prevalence, the seriousness of its infection, associated with high mortality in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent hosts and its cryptic ecology, distribution and epidemiology across the globe. These species complexes can be found in environments impacted by human. The purpose of this review is to describe the characteristics, mode of transmission, ecology, prevalence, global epidemiology of this fungal group in order to increase the awareness of among clinicians and microbiologists, especially in regions with high endemic, as well as to promote further research on all of its aspects.
