Fungaemia due to rare yeasts in a tertiary care university centre within 18 years

Fungaemia due to rare yeasts has been recognised as an emerging, clinically relevant, but less investigated condition. Intrinsic resistance or reduced susceptibility of these species to echinocandins or fluconazole remains as a challenge in empirical treatment.
