Abstract

ABSTRACT Acrophialophora fusispora is a thermotolerant soil fungus which is very unusual in clinical samples. Here we report four cases of transient or chronic airway colonization by A. fusispora in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). However, the prevalence of this fungus in CF patients may be underestimated due to the currently poor knowledge of this fungus in most of the medical mycology laboratories. In addition, its clinical importance regarding CF remains to be evaluated.
