Abstract

ABSTRACT Trichosporon inkin is one of six pathogenic species of the genus Trichosporon and the etiologic agent of pubic white piedra. Trichosporon species have been reported as a cause of disseminated infections, particularly among immunosuppressed patients. We describe the third reported case of T. inkin peritonitis associated with peritoneal dialysis and the first to be treated with caspofungin.
