Abstract

In our study, the changing epidemiology of Candida species in candidemia in children was evaluated. The dominance of Candida parapsilosis species in the changing epidemiology was remarkable. We found that fluconazole resistance was high in both parapsilosis and nonparapsilosis groups. Updating local epidemiologic data at certain intervals in candidemia cases is important in determining both the changing epidemiology and empirical antifungal agents.
