摘要
Invasive mould infections are life-threatening and mainly occur in immunocompromised patients. Whereas aspergillosis is described during haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), only a few cases of concomi-tant mucormycosis with HLH have been reported. Here, we present an uncommon coinfection of mucormy-cosis and aspergillosis associated with HLH probably due to a varicella zoster virus (VZV) viraemia which was unresponsive to triple antifungal therapy (liposomal amphotericin B combined with isavuconazole and caspofungin). A review of the cases of mucormycosis with HLH showed that this uncommon association was always lethal and underscored the relevance of screening for mould infections in patients with HLH.(c) 2022 The Authors.
