摘要
Invasive fungal infections, especially candidiasis and aspergillosis, are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Many controversies surround the management of these infections. A critical overview of the recent Infectious Diseases Society of America practice guidelines is provided, as are comments on both the conundrums and future perspectives in medical mycology.
