Invasive mould infections in newborns and children

Elio Castagnola et al. Early Hum Dev. 2011 Mar.

Abstract

Epidemiology and clinical features vary according to the type of underlying conditions that determine the risk of invasive mycosis. No pediatric study has specifically evaluated the efficacy of prophylaxis or therapy invasive moulds infections, while pediatric dosages for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis are available for drugs that produced positive results in clinical trials undertaken in adults.
