Risk factors for infection include impaired lung defenses and intense immunosuppressive regimens. While most IFD occurs from Aspergillus<\/jats:italic>, other fungal conidia are continuously inhaled, and infections with fungi on a spectrum of human pathogenicity can occur.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Case Report<\/jats:title>We report a case of a 17\u2010year\u2010old lung transplant recipient in whom Irpex lacteus<\/jats:italic> and Rhodotorula<\/jats:italic> species were identified during surveillance bronchoscopy. She was asymptomatic and deemed to be colonized by Irpex lacteus<\/jats:italic> and Rhodotorula<\/jats:italic> species following transplant. 2\u2009years after transplantation, she developed a fever, respiratory symptoms, abnormal lung imaging, and histological evidence of acute and chronic bronchitis on transbronchial biopsy. After developing symptoms concerning for a pulmonary infection and graft dysfunction, she was treated for a presumed IFD. Unfortunately, further diagnostic testing could not be performed at this time given her tenuous clinical status. Despite the initiation of antifungal therapy, her graft function continued to decline resulting in a second lung transplantation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>This case raises the concern for IFD in lung transplant recipients from Irpex<\/jats:italic> species. Further investigation is needed to understand the pathogenicity of this organism, reduce the incidence and mortality of IFD in lung transplant recipients, and refine the approach to diagnosis and manage the colonization and isolation of rare, atypical fungal pathogens in immunocompromised hosts.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/petr.14759","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,16]],"date-time":"2024-04-16T09:55:43Z","timestamp":1713261343000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Identification
