Candida krusei has been recognised as a potentially multidrug resistant fungal pathogen due to its intrinsic fluconazole resistance and reports of decreased susceptibility to amphotericin B. Moreover, the medical literature provides only four articles that report on four cases of fungemia caused by C. krusei in newborns. The objective of this study was to report on the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of three cases of fungal sepsis in the neonates caused by C. krusei.
克鲁斯念珠菌因其固有的氟康唑耐药性以及对两性霉素B敏感性降低的报道,已被公认为一种具有潜在多重耐药性的真菌病原体。此外,医学文献中仅提供了四篇报道新生儿克鲁斯念珠菌引起的四例真菌血症病例的文章。本研究的目的是报告三例由克鲁斯念珠菌引起的新生儿真菌败血症的临床和流行病学特征。
