Abstract

Purpose of review

This review summarizes the information available of Candida haemulonii sensu lato, and updates the in vitro susceptibility profile of the isolates of these species from Argentina. C. haemulonii sensu lato causes fungemia in low frequency in adults and children; however, the knowledge about this emerging yeast is relevant since it is considered as a multi-resistant pathogen.

Recent findings

The discovery of new antifungal molecules, the determination of epidemiological cutoff value and clinical breakpoints for some yeasts of clinical impact, and the update of techniques to determine the in vitro susceptibility profile to yeast have generated some available information, although, for C. haemulonii sensu lato, this information is not always useful for clinical application.

Summary

We determined the susceptibility profile of C. haemulonii sensu lato strains isolated in Argentina, as a first step to establish the epidemiological cutoff values in our region. We also review the current situation in other countries.
