Successful Management of Spondylodiscitis Caused by Aspergillus nidulans: A Case Report and Literature Review

We report a case of spondylodiscitis caused by <i>Aspergillus nidulans</i> (SC<i>AN</i>). <i>A. nidulans</i> is a saprophytic fungus and emerging pathogen responsible for a variety of infections, although it is rarely implicated in osteoarticular infections. The patient was a 59-year-old immunocompromised patient with a history of lymphoma and splenectomy. Following diagnosis, the patient was promptly and effectively treated with voriconazole. A literature review underlines the distinctive features of the few case reports of SC<i>AN</i>, as well as the original features of the present case report.
