Geotrichum capitatum is an emerging opportunistic pathogen which causes invasive disease in immunocompromized patients. We describe a patient with non Hodgkin's lymphoma and disseminated infection by G. capitatum with predominant liver involvement, which was proven by repeated positive blood cultures and a liver biopsy. Staining liver biopsy demonstrated the presence of hyphal elements consistent with G. capitatum. Combined antimycotic treatment with amphotericin B and 5-flucytosine did not eradicate the mycotic infection as shown by the persistence of liver lesions.
