摘要
A total of 854 patients (640 children and 214 adults) admitted with acute or chronic diarrhoea suspected of non-invasive overgrowth of fungi in intestine were screened during a period of 3 years. Fungal proliferation was noted in 54.8% of these patients (53.6% in children, 58.4% in adults). The predominant fungal species isolated were Candida albicans (64.5%), followed by C. tropicalis (23.3 %) C. krusei (6.9%), T orulopsis glabrata (1.6%). Trichosporon sp. and Geotrichum sp. were found to be responsible in 2.3% of adults. As seen in bacterial diarrhoea, higher incidence was noted in children from April to August. No such seasonal variation was noted in adults. © 1990 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
