Abstract

Septic shock is a very rare manifestation of invasive fungal disease (IFD) in children after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). The objective of this paper is analysis of two cases of pediatric patients with IFD caused by Saprochaete clavata after allo-HCT. Literature data on this infection in children and its outcome were also summarized. Infection with Saprochaete clavate presenting with symptoms of septic shock was being reported in 4 children, and 2 of them survived the infection. In conclusion, with quick diagnosis and quick treatment, the outcome of therapy of infection with Saprochaete clavata was successful.
