Penatalaksanaan kandidiasis oral disebabkan Candida tropicalis pada anak dengan gangguan sistemik

Abstract

Oral candidiasis is an oral mucosal infection caused by Candida albicans (CA) ornon-Candida albicans Candida (NCAC). C. tropicalis (CT) is most virulent NCACbecause it has the most adherence ability to epithelial cells in vitro as well as mediumlevel proteinase secretion. In addition, CT is the second most common colony found inhuman. Although incidence rate of oral infection was low, this species has virulencepotency, lately reported as the mayor cause of candidemia in immunocompromisedpatients. This paper reports and discusses oral candidiasis due to CT in a child whosuffered anemia with clinical sign of malnutrition. Oral nystatin suspension is therapyof choice because of patient well response, and in vitro studies reported lack ofresponse of fluconazole to candidemia due to C.tropicalis. However, nystatin oralsuspension, should be synchronized with hygiene optimalization of elimination ofpredisposition factors, and supportive therapy would provide a good prognosis.

Management of palatal perforation in systemic lupus erythematosus patient

“…4 Although the most frequently found species is Candida albicans, recently the incidence of NCAC infection has continued to increase. 8 Over 30% of SLE patients often present problems with the salivary gland where an unstimulated saliva flow rate results in decreased salivary production and, in turn, severe Sjögren's syndrome, oral candidiasis and xerostomia. 2 Oral ulcers, painless lesions often found in the buccal mucosa and palate, have been identified as the major diagnostic manifestation of SLE by the American Rheumatism Association Committee on Diagnostic Therapeutic Criteria.…”

“…Candida tropicalis is one NCAC species demonstrating the highest level of virulence due to its attachment ability, the strongest among epithelial cells, which can secrete protein at medium levels. 8 The fungus entering the body induces a response from the host's immune system. IgM and IgG are produced and circulated by the bloodstream in response to fungal infections.…”

“…84.8% of cases of oral candidiasis, including: Candida crusei, Candida tropicalis, Candida parapsilosis, Candida kefyr, and Candida famata, are caused by Candida Albicans and NCAC. 8 In recent years, the prognosis for individuals suffering from SLE has improved considerably when treated with appropriate therapy and the greater ease of access to both information and the health services equipped to treat the condition. 2 The purpose of this paper was to report the management of palatal perforation in SLE patients which can provide insight for dentists working in an integrated multidisciplinary manner in other fields in order to offer optimal care in SLE cases requiring holistic treatment.…”

“…Then Candida albicans was more virulent. [4][5][6] The differential diagnosis of oral thrush on dorsal surface of the tongue are furred tongue. Clinical examination of furred tongue reveals a whitish lesion encompassing the entire dorsal surface of the tongue.…”

“…2 Selain itu, pertahanan tubuh host yang mengalami penurunan juga menjadi penyebab proliferasi C. albicans pada rongga mulut. 3 Limfosit merupakan bagian leukosit agranulosit yang memiliki fungsi sebagai sistem kekebalan tubuh dan memproduksi antibodi sebagai respon terhadap adanya antigen. 4 Limfosit terdiri atas limfosit T yang bertanggung jawab dalam pembentukan limfosit teraktivasi yang dapat membentuk imunitas, dan limfosit B yang bertanggung jawab dalam pembentukan antibodi.…”
