为了估计癌症患者中真菌感染的频率,在欧洲、日本和加拿大的多个机构进行了一项尸检调查。真菌感染最常见于白血病患者和移植受者(各占25%)。58%的真菌感染是由念珠菌引起的。曲霉菌30%。不同国家真菌感染的频率有相当大的差异。然而,这项研究清楚地表明,真菌感染是癌症患者,特别是白血病患者的常见并发症。
In an attempt to estimate the frequency of fungal infections among cancer patients, a survey of autopsy examinations was conducted in multiple institutions in Europe, Japan and Canada. Fungal infections were identified most often in leukemic patients and transplant recipients (25 % each). Fifty-eight percent of fungal infections were caused by Candida spp. and 30 % by Aspergillus spp. There was considerable variability in the frequency of fungal infections in different countries. Nevertheless, this study clearly demonstrates that fungal infections represent a common complication in cancer patients, especially in patients with leukemia.
