Characterisation of Antifungal Prophylaxis and Therapy Among Inpatients With Haematological Malignancies in Non‐Research Clinical Setting: A Multicentre Italian Experience

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Invasive fungal infections (IFI) are a prominent cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with haematological malignancies (HMs). Diagnostic work‐up excluding IFI is mandatory in case of persistent fever while antifungal treatment (AFT) is started.

Autopsy Findings in a Case of Lomentospora prolificans Fungemia in Myelodysplastic Syndrome

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Lomentospora prolificans is a soil‐, plant‐, or animal‐borne mold that can affect immunocompromised hosts. Most L. prolificans infections are identifiable in the bloodstream. L. prolificans fungemia has never been reported in an autopsy. Case Report We treated a 79‐year‐old man with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), MDS‐EB‐1 subtype.
