First case reports of bloodstream infection by Candida magnoliae in two neonates with low birth weight
Invasive candidiasis is a serious neonatal sepsis with high morbidity and mortality despite the correct treatment. Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis are the most common pathogens causing these events; however, a new emergent pathogen has evolved with time. Herein, we describe two cases of Ca...

description | Invasive candidiasis is a serious neonatal sepsis with high morbidity and mortality despite the correct treatment. Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis are the most common pathogens causing these events; however, a new emergent pathogen has evolved with time. Herein, we describe two cases of Candida magnoliae infection in neonates with a fatal outcome. This microorganism is commonly used in the food industry given its high capacity to produce erythritol and mannitol. This report is important to gain more information about this pathogen and manage it in a more effective way. |
