Defining standards of CARE for invasive fungal diseases in solid organ transplant patients
Abstract
Fungal infection in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients is a challenge for physicians. Our aim was to review progress made within the past decade in managing the most important invasive fungal diseases in SOT recipients. Standards of care for candidosis, aspergillosis, mucormycosis and cryptococcosis in this special population are summarized.
