Fluorescence of Cladophialophora Bantiana After Administration of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid Hydrochloride: Case Report

<i>C. bantiana</i> is a fungal infection with high mortality and poor prognosis, capable of invading immunocompetent hosts. In our case, the intraoperative use of 5-ALA allowed for optimal surgical excision and no postoperative complications to date. This study suggests that 5-ALA could be used in situations not restricted to glioma to promote decreased mortality and improved patient outcomes.
