Epidemiology of fungal infections in liver transplant recipients: a six-year study of a large Brazilian liver transplantation centre

Liver transplant seems to be an effective option to prolong survival in patients with end-stage liver disease, although it still can be followed by serious complications. Invasive fungal infections (ifi) are related to high rates of morbidity and mortality. The epidemiology of fungal infections in Brazilian liver transplant recipients is unknown. The aim of this observational and retrospective study was to determine the incidence and epidemiology of fungal infections in all patients who underwent liver transplantation at Albert Einstein Israeli Hospital between 2002-2007. A total of 596 liver transplants were performed in 540 patients. Overall, 77 fungal infections occurred in 68 (13%) patients. Among the 77 fungal infections, there were 40 IFI that occurred in 37 patients (7%). Candida and Aspergillus species were the most common etiologic agents. Candida species accounted for 82% of all fungal infections and for 67% of all IFI, while Aspergillus species accounted for 9% of all fungal infections and for 17% of all IFI. Non-albicans Candida species were the predominant Candida isolates. Invasive aspergillosis tended to occur earlier in the post-transplant period. These findings can contribute to improve antifungal prophylaxis and therapy practices in Brazilian centres.     

Bronchoalveolar lavage in liver transplant patients

Because immunosuppression is required to control rejection, liver allograft recipients are susceptible to a variety of opportunistic pathogens. A total of 191 bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) specimens from 89 patients (53 adults and 36 children) who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation was reviewed. One case each of cytomegalovirus (CMV), staphylococcal and Enterobacter pneumonia was diagnosed with the aid of pretransplant BAL. The pretransplant BAL in 62 patients showed rare yeasts in 24.2%; these probably represent oropharyngeal contaminants since the patients involved had no symptoms of Candida pneumonia. Among 54 patients who developed respiratory symptoms and underwent posttransplant BAL, 23 (42.6%) were infected with opportunistic pathogens, including Pneumocystis carinii (22.2%), CMV (22.2%) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) (7.4%). Frequently, infection with multiple organisms was present. Adults constituted 100% of the HSV-infected group, 69.2% of the CMV-infected group and 16.6% of the group infected with P carinii. The diagnosis of these infections was aided by a combination of cytology, microbial culture and in situ hybridization techniques. Although BAL permitted the diagnosis and treatment of opportunistic infections, high mortality (62.5%) occurred with CMV and HSV pneumonia. Further studies into methods that permit earlier diagnoses of these infections are necessary.     

Epidemiology of invasive fungal infection in solid organ transplant

Despite advances made in the last decades, invasive fungal infections (IFI) continue to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in solid organ transplant recipients. The most common pathogens causing IFI are Candida species, followed by Aspergillus and Cryptococcus. A shift in the epidemiology of IFI has been reported in the last few years. Non-Candida albicans Candida species and non-Aspergillus filamentous moulds have been increasingly observed in transplant patients. A change in the IFI onset time has also been described recently. In the RESITRA (Spanish Network of Infection in Transplantation) study, at least 50% of invasive aspergillosis (IA) infections and 40% of invasive Candida infections had been observed after 180 days of transplant. Some cases of cryptococcal infection, traditionally considered as a late onset infection, have been observed in the early post transplant period. Mortality due to IFI is still high, particularly in patients with IA. However, the progressive improvement achieved in diagnosis and prevention of IFI has led to a lower mortality rate.     

Cavitary pneumonia in an AIDS patient with cryptococcosis

Pulmonary cryptococcosis is an unusual fungal infection that is most often found in AIDS or in organ transplant recipients. Although in immunocompromised patients, cryptococcal infection often causes pulmonary infections, the diagnosis of lung involvement is generally difficult. The presentation of pulmonary cryptoccosis in HIV-infected patients appears to be more acute and severe than in other immunocompromised patients, probably related with the severe immunosuppression. Diffuse infiltrates, mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes enlargement are the most common radiological findings in AIDS-associated pulmonary cryptococcosis. Cavitation is a rare form of and includes only 10% to 15% of all cases. Only a few case reports or studies with small number of patients of pulmonary cryptococcosis have been published over the past two decades. We report a case of an AIDS patient who developed cavitary pneumonia as the only clinical expression of cryptococcosis.     

Tracking hepatitis C virus quasispecies major and minor variants in symptomatic and asymptomatic liver transplant recipients.

To evaluate the possibility that distinct viral quasispecies play a role in the pathogenesis of progressive hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, we performed a detailed evaluation of HCV quasispecies before and after liver transplantation in five patients infected with HCV genotype 1, three of whom developed severe recurrent hepatitis C and two of whom developed asymptomatic posttransplant infections with high-titered viremia. HCV quasispecies were characterized by using a combination of nucleotide sequencing plus heteroduplex tracking assay of the second envelope gene hypervariable region (HVR). An average of 30 HVR clones were analyzed per specimen; an average of five specimens were analyzed per patient over a 6- to 24-month study period. The complexity of HCV quasispecies in pretransplant serum varied, ranging from one to nine genetically distinct variants for the five patients. However, in all five cases, relatively homogenous quasispecies variants emerged after liver transplantation. In the three patients who developed recurrent hepatitis, quasispecies major variants present in pretransplant serum were efficiently propagated immediately after liver transplantation and were propagated throughout the course of acute and chronic hepatitis. In contrast, in the two asymptomatic cases, we observed rapid depletion of pretransplant quasispecies major variants from posttransplant serum, followed by emergence of new quasispecies variants by posttransplant day 30. Genetic analysis suggested that in these cases, the new quasispecies variants were derived from minor variants present at relatively low clonal frequency (less than 5% of HVR clones) within the pretransplant quasispecies populations. These data demonstrate that quasispecies tracking patterns are associated with the rapidity and severity of HCV-associated liver disease after liver transplantation. Further characterization of HCV quasispecies in animal model systems is warranted.

Candidemia persistente en una paciente receptora de trasplante renopancreático

BackgroundIn recent decades, there has been an increase in the survival of recipients of solid organ trans-plants related to the improvement of the surgical technique, the introduction of protocols for immunosu-ppressive therapy, and the use of antimicrobial prophylaxis. Nonetheless, invasive fungal infection (IFI) is currently the major cause of morbidity and mortality in this group of patients. Invasive candidiasis is the most common IFI found after renal transplantation and is usually associated with total parenteral nutrition, broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy and abdominal surgery.Clinical caseWe report the case of a recent kidney-pancreas transplant recipient who developed a persis-tent catheter-related candidemia caused by Candida glabrata. The patient was treated with anidulafungin and had a good clinical course with no significant drug interactions.We discuss the possible causes and diagnostic and therapeutic alternatives of this kind of infection.
