Candidemia in patients with hematologic malignancies: analysis of 7 years' experience in a single center.
We report 45 incidents of candidemia in 45 patients diagnosed with hematologic malignancies between 1997 and 2004. A large majority of species isolated were non-albicans and there was an unexpectedly high incidence of Candida tropicalis. The attributable mortality (15%) was interestingly low in this population of severely immunocompromised patients.
