Abstract

Abstract: A 32-year-old man was admitted because of recurrent episodes of lymphadenectasis, fever and skin rashes for two years. Broad-spectrum antibiotics and anti-tuberculosis therapy were ineffective. Lung CT showed multiple nodules in both lungs and the serum was positive for anti-IFN-γ. Disseminated Talaromyces marneffei was diagnosed by skin biopsy, lymph node biopsy, lung biopsy. Amphotericin B liposome combined with voriconazole had a good therapeutic effect.

Key words: Talaromyces marneffei, non-HIV patient, anti-IFN-γ autoantibody
