Invasive candidiasis is the most common opportunistic mycosis. The global change in spectrum of Candida species is also observed in India; however, the higher prevalence of candidemia due to Candida tropicalis instead of C. glabrata or C. parapsilosis is interesting. Invasive aspergillosis is the second contender.

Answer:
Prevalence of IFI was 22.97% (13.99-34.21). Positive cases were further classified into proven 3(17.6%), probable 11(64.8%) and possible 3(17.6%) according to EORTC/MSG criteria. On multivariate analysis, abnormal CXR and clinical sinusitis were important predictors of IFI.
