Fulminant, Undetected Candida Sepsis After an Apparently Survivable Burn Injury
Journal of Burn Care & Research, 08/26/09
Struck MF et al. – The authors report a 20–year–old male who suffered smoke inhalation injury and burns covering 26% of his TBSA, including his face, dorsal chest, and both the arms. Suppression of immune response and possible previous gastric Candida colonization may contribute to hazardous outcomes. However, delayed and unreliable methods to detect fungal infections remain a major problem in burn care. Occult aggressive fungal sepsis resulting in early multiple organ failure should be kept in mind.
