Abstract
We have described a patient with fatal Scopulariopsis pneumonia, a previously unreported infection, complicating immunosuppressive therapy for acute myeloblastic leukemia. This Scopulariopsis isolate was highly resistant to available antifungal agents, in part accounting for our patient's death.Keywords
