Antifungal Resistance Among Candida Species: Diagnostic and Clinical Challenges in Specialized Cancer Care Hospital of Lahore [PDF]
Consumption of antifungals showed a declining trend, with the highest consumption of oral voriconazole (mean DOT/1000 pt. days 18653.49) and oral fluconazole (mean DOT/1000 pt. days 15258.14). Candida albicans was the most isolated pathogen 768 (53.60%) and among all Candida species, major resistance was found in Candida tropicalis 58 (4.05%).

Response of chromoblastomycosis to voriconazole [PDF]
Chromoblastomycosis is a chronic fungal infection of the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue, in which the most common etiologic agent in Brazil is Fonsecaea pedrosoi. In more advanced cases we found many difficulties in their treatment, and therefore, we report a case of extensive and severe chromoblastomycosis, with therapeutical failure of ...
