Abstract
Invasive aspergillosis is a serious infectious complication, which can occur after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In particular, despite antifungal treatment, invasive aspergillosis involving the central nervous system (CNS) shows very high mortality. In principle, a neurosurgical procedure with an antifungal agent is recommended for treatment of CNS invasive aspergillosis. We encountered a patient suffering from disseminated invasive aspergillosis involving the lung, brain, and soft tissues after allogeneic HSCT for treatment of relapsed acute myeloid leukemia who was cured with voriconazole and stereotactic drainage of the brain abscess.
