Antigenic and anticorpal diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis and candidosis in immunocompromised host

Invasive gastrointestinal aspergillosis in an immunocompromised host.

I Aspergillosis (IA) is a common opportunistic infection in immunocompromised individuals. The IA is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with hematological malignancies and it is particularly common during neutropenic episodes following anticancer chemotherapy.1 While pulmonary aspergillosis involvement is common, gastrointestinal (GI) aspergillosis infection with clinical...

Comparison of serum PCR assay and histopathology for the diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis and mucormycosis in immunocompromised patients with sinus involvement

Background and Purpose: Invasive fungal infections cause morbidity and mortality in patients with hematologic malignancies and immunosuppression. Although these infections are commonly caused by Candida and Aspergillus species, infections caused by Mucoralean fungi are also on a growing trend. The definitive diagnosis of mucormycosis includes visualization of non-septate hyphae on patholog...

Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in non-immunocompromised patients.

Molecular approaches to diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis what we know and what we do not know.

Invasive aspergillosis (IA) are a major complication in immunocompromized patients where can be serious and rapidly fatal. Early diagnosis and early appropriate antifungal treatment is important in reducing mortality and morbidity. But despite many efforts to develop detection methods, the diagnosis of IA still remains challenging and current conventional methods are limited for adequate diagno...
