Results Each patient with fungemia was seriously ill with two or more predisposing factors;Candida ablicans accounted for 47%;the rate of candida parapsilosi, candida tropicalis were 17%, 12%. In the 23 cases of patients,13 cases of patients cure (56.5%), 8 cases of patients died (34.7%);2 cases of patients give up (8.6%).
