Nosocomial Candida guilliermondii fungemia in cancer patients

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2000
AbstractFrom 1988 to 1998, we identified nine patients with Candida guilliermondii fungemia. Four of the five patients with nosocomial infection died, while all of the non-nosocomial cases survived, even though one half of them (2/4) did not receive any treatment Nosocomial C guilliermondii fungemia is often associated with poor outcome despite ...
