Home Environment as a Source of Life-Threatening Azole-Resistant <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> in Immunocompromised Patients: Table 1.

Abstract

A case of fatal aspergillosis due to a TR₄₆/Y121F/T289A azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus is reported. Environmental investigations at the patient's residence led to the recovery of TR₄₆/Y121F/T289A isolates, genotypically indistinguishable from the clinical isolate, supporting for the first time the direct role of household as potential source of azole-resistant invasive aspergillosis.
