@entity3 ( @entity3 ) caused by inherently more antifungal-resistant non-fumigatus @entity54 species has become an important life-threatening complication in severely immunocompromised @entity1 with @entity5 . The purpose of this study was to compare the relative incidence of, risk factors for, and in vitro correlation of @entity2379 and @entity2059 with the clinical outcome of @entity3 caused by @entity54 with those of @entity3 caused by non-fumigatus @entity54 spp. in @entity1 with @entity5 . A retrospective search of our tertiary care @entity5 center's microbiology laboratory reports from 1998-2001 revealed 40 @entity1 with @entity5 and @entity3 . A non-fumigatus @entity54 species caused @entity3 in 28 (70%) of those @entity1 . A. fumigatus was the predominant cause of late-onset @entity3 after bone marrow transplantation (p = 0.05), whereas @entity3 due to non-fumigatus @entity54 spp. was more common in @entity1 with @entity1398 (p = 0.01). The minimum inhibitory concentration (50/90) and minimum fungicidal concentration (50/90) for @entity2379 were higher in the non-fumigatus @entity54 spp. group than in the A. fumigatus one. The @entity54 species distribution in @entity3 cases in our institution shows a predominance of the more antifungal-resistant or -tolerant non-fumigatus @entity54 spp.
