RÉSUMÉ
Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with acute leukemia who are receiving chemotherapy. Primary prophylaxis with antifungal agents has become the standard of care in this setting; as a result, invasive candidiasis has shown a significant reduction. However, broad use of antifungal prophylaxis has led to an increase in breakthrough candidiasis with reduced susceptibility or resistance to fluconazole. In addition, an increase in breakthrough mucormycosis has been reported in studies of voriconazole prophylaxis. We report on a case of disseminated candidiasis and subsequent breakthrough pulmonary mucormycosis in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing consolidation chemotherapy. To the best of our knowledge, in Korea, this is the first report of these two independent IFIs occurring in a single patient.
