BACKGROUND: Fusarium infection in the central nervous system is a rare pathology generally reported in patients with hematological malignancies.
CLINCAL CASE: A patient with Fusarium meningoencephalitis during the late postpartum period is presented. The patient's main symptom was holocranial headache with poor response to analgesics, adding dysarthria and blurred vision. Initially, it was classified as aseptic meningitis due to the absence of bacterial isolation, however, 8 weeks after the onset of the symptoms, Fusarium development was obtained in cerebrospinal fluid cultures. Targeted treatment with liposomal amphotericin and voriconazole was established, with partial improvement at first; however, at 16 weeks from the onset of the clinical picture, the patient presented sudden deterioration of alertness, an ischemic area was found in the occipital lobe by imaging study, which quickly led the patient to a fatal outcome.
CONCLUSION: Despite the fact that in recent years Fusarium spp infection has been detected more frequently in the population, the treatment is still not well established, making management of the Central Nervous System a challenge.
