Zoran, Tamara; Sartori, Bettina; Sappl, Laura; Aigner, Maria; Sánchez-Reus, Ferran; Rezusta, Antonio; Chowdhary, Anuradha; Taj-Aldeen, Saad J.Objectives: Invasive mold infections associated with Aspergillus species are a significant cause of mortality in immunocompromised patients. The most frequently occurring aetiological pathogens are members of the Aspergillus section Fumigati followed by members of the section Terrei. The frequency of Aspergillus terreus and related (cryptic) species in clinical specimens, as well as the percentage of azole-resi...
