Invasive candidiasis (IC) is the most frequent fungal disease in children and adults.
To critically review and update the current epidemiology of Candida spp. disease in neonates, children and adults (critically ill patients and in oncohematologic patients and in solid organ transplant recipients).
We searched the PubMed/Medline, discussing the current data.
IC is associated with high attributable morbimortality and increased healthcare costs. In the last decades the incidence of invasive Candida spp. disease has increased in critically ill patients, has decreased in oncohematologic patients, although currently the involvement of non-albicans Candida species in the etiology of this disease is increasing steadily.
侵袭性念珠菌病（IC）是儿童和成人中最常见的真菌疾病。
对新生儿、儿童和成人（重症患者、肿瘤血液科患者及实体器官移植受者）念珠菌属疾病的当前流行病学进行严格审查和更新。
我们检索了PubMed/Medline，并对当前数据进行了讨论。
IC与高归因发病率和死亡率以及医疗费用增加相关。在过去几十年中，侵袭性念珠菌属疾病在重症患者中的发病率有所上升，在肿瘤血液科患者中的发病率有所下降，尽管目前非白色念珠菌在该疾病病因中的参与度正在稳步增加。
