摘要：
Trichosporon asahii is an emerging mycosis characterized by high mortality rate in immunologically compromised patients. Only a few cases have been reported in immunocompetent subjects. We report a 46-yr-old man who had been healthy and who presented with septic shock and purpura fulminans caused by Trichosporon asahii. He responded well to antifungal therapy with amphotericin B and voriconazole.
