BACKGROUND: Voriconazole is a new second-generation fluconazole-derived triazole. With greater potency against susceptible species and a broader spectrum of activity than fluconazole, it is the treatment of choice for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and other fungal infections (Fusarium, Scedosporium/Pseudalleschezria) is indicated in a visit Candida infections refractory to fluconazole. We describe 7 cases of photosensitivity during treatment with voriconazole in a setting of immunodepression.
CASE REPORTS: The patients comprised 5 women and 2 men with a mean age of 38 years (17-67 years). Five had undergone pulmonary transplantation for mucoviscidosis, one had undergone kidney transplantation for lupus nephroangiosclerosis and one was on long-term systemic steroid treatment for Sjögren's syndrome. All patients had very severe immunosuppression and were receiving voriconazole for pulmonary aspergillosis (6 cases) or Scedosporium infection (1 case). Photosensitization appeared within 5 weeks to 14 months after the start of treatment, and in all cases followed exposure to sun, occasionally at low levels. In all cases, cutaneous lesions rapidly disappeared on discontinuation of treatment.
DISCUSSION: There have been reports in the literature, although rare, of photosensitivity with voriconazole. Patients must be informed of the possibility of this adverse effect and sun protection must be recommended when voriconazole is prescribed, particularly during periods of intensive exposure.
