Title
Invasive Fungal Diseases
Abstract
Abstract
Invasive fungal diseases are potentially life-threatening infectious complications following HCT and CAR-T cell treatment. The successful introduction of azole-based antifungal prophylaxis has dramatically changed the fungal epidemiology and resistance patterns in many institutions. Timely and accurate diagnosis remains a challenge, especially for mould infections, and relies nowadays heavily on the detection of fungal biomarkers, fungal DNA, and sensitive imaging. Various antifungal strategies are in place, and recommendations regarding drugs of choice are available.
