Abstract

Disturbances in blood coagulation profiles combined with intraoperative technical problems may lead to hemorrhage and significant blood loss. During the postoperative period hematologic changes may result from the use of immunosuppressive drugs, so careful monitoring and review are essential parts of management. The two major aspects of hematologic change are reviewed.

[Occurrence of the yeast and filamentous fungi in haematological patients during 2002 to August 2005].

BACKGROUND: The number of diseases caused by yeast and fungi has been increasing recently. The primary disease is caused by dermatophytes and Cryptococcus neoformans. Other types of yeast and fungi can cause secondary infections of patients with predisposition factors. Among the mycotic diseases diagnosed in our laboratory can be included candidosis, cryptococcosis, aspergillosis and mucormycosis. METHODS AND RESULTS: In haematological patients Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, Candida tropicalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae are the most frequently diagnosed. CONCLUSIONS: Together with the increased number of examined samples, the rising number of strains resistant to azole antimycotics can be observed.
