Invasive <em>Candida</em> Infections in Neonates after Major Surgery: Current Evidence and New Directions
Infections represent a serious health problem in neonates. Invasive <i>Candida</i> infections (ICIs) are still a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Infants hospitalized in NICUs are at high risk of ICIs, because of several risk factors: bro...

Infections represent a serious health problem in neonates. Invasive <i>Candida</i> infections (ICIs) are still a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Infants hospitalized in NICUs are at high risk of ICIs, because of several risk factors: broad spectrum antibiotic treatments, central catheters and other invasive devices, fungal colonization, and impaired immune responses. In this review we summarize 19 published studies which provide the prevalence of previous surgery in neonates with invasive <i>Candida</i> infections. We also provide an overview of risk factors for ICIs after major surgery, fungal colonization, and innate defense mechanisms against fungi, as well as the roles of different <i>Candida</i> spp., the epidemiology and costs of ICIs, diagnosis of ICIs, and antifungal prophylaxis and treatment. |
