Received Date: Oct 02, 2024 / Published Date: Oct 30, 2024
Abstract
This report describes a case of olecranon bursitis caused by Scedosporium apiospermum in a patient undergoing CAR-T cell therapy. The patient presented with swelling and pain in the elbow, prompting further investigation. Diagnostic imaging and microbiological analysis confirmed the fungal infection. The treatment involved antifungal therapy alongside management of bursitis symptoms. This case highlights the need for awareness of opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients, particularly those receiving advanced therapies like CAR-T cells.
