Producción científica: Contribución a una revista › Artículo en revista científica indexada › revisión exhaustiva

Resumen

We report an extremely premature infant with necrotizing cellulitis. After minor trauma to the left arm when removing an adhesive sensor, patient developed rapidly progressive cellulitis, which evolved into a necrotic ulcer. Microbiological studies (mass spectroscopy and molecular assay) identified Rhizopus
arrhizus as the responsible fungus.
