Résumé

Donor-derived endemic mycoses are infrequently reported. We summarized the clinical characteristics and outcomes of these infections to provide guidance to transplant clinicians. Multiple databases were reviewed from inception through May 31, 2023 using endemic fungi as key words (e.g., Coccidioides, histoplasma, blastomyces, talaromyces, paracoccidioides). Only donor-derived infections (DDI) were included. Twenty-four cases of DDI were identified from 18 published reports; these included 16 coccidioidomycosis, seven histoplasmosis, and one talaromycosis. No cases of blastomycosis and paracoccidiodomycosis were published. The majority were male (17/24,70.8%). Half of the cases were probable (12/24, 50%), seven were possible (29.2%), and only five were proven DDI (20.8%). Donor-derived coccidioidomycosis were observed in kidney (n = 11), lung (n = 6), liver (n = 3), heart (n = 2) and combined SOT recipients (1 KP, 1 KL) at a median time of .9 (range .2-35) months after transplantation. For histoplasmosis, the majority were kidney recipients (6 of 7 cases) at a median onset of 8 (range .4-48) months after transplantation. The single reported possible donor-derived talaromycosis occurred in a man whose organ donor had at-risk travel to Southeast Asia. Collectively, the majority of donors had high-risk exposure to Coccidioides (9/11) or Histoplasma sp. (6/6). Most donor-derived endemic mycoses were disseminated (18/24, 75%), and mortality was reported in almost half of recipients (11/24, 45.8%). Donor-derived endemic mycoses are often disseminated and are associated with high mortality. A detailed evaluation of donors for the potential of an undiagnosed fungal infection prior to organ donation is essential to mitigate the risk of these devastating infections.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Donor-derived endemic mycoses are infrequently reported. We summarized the clinical characteristics and outcomes of these infections to provide guidance to transplant clinicians.
METHODS METHODS
Multiple databases were reviewed from inception through May 31, 2023 using endemic fungi as key words (e.g., Coccidioides, histoplasma, blastomyces, talaromyces, paracoccidioides). Only donor-derived infections (DDI) were included.
RESULTS RESULTS
Twenty-four cases of DDI were identified from 18 published reports; these included 16 coccidioidomycosis, seven histoplasmosis, and one talaromycosis. No cases of blastomycosis and paracoccidiodomycosis were published. The majority were male (17/24,70.8%). Half of the cases were probable (12/24, 50%), seven were possible (29.2%), and only five were proven DDI (20.8%). Donor-derived coccidioidomycosis were observed in kidney (n = 11), lung (n = 6), liver (n = 3), heart (n = 2) and combined SOT recipients (1 KP, 1 KL) at a median time of .9 (range .2-35) months after transplantation. For histoplasmosis, the majority were kidney recipients (6 of 7 cases) at a median onset of 8 (range .4-48) months after transplantation. The single reported possible donor-derived talaromycosis occurred in a man whose organ donor had at-risk travel to Southeast Asia. Collectively, the majority of donors had high-risk exposure to Coccidioides (9/11) or Histoplasma sp. (6/6). Most donor-derived endemic mycoses were disseminated (18/24, 75%), and mortality was reported in almost half of recipients (11/24, 45.8%).
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Donor-derived endemic mycoses are often disseminated and are associated with high mortality. A detailed evaluation of donors for the potential of an undiagnosed fungal infection prior to organ donation is essential to mitigate the risk of these devastating infections.
