ABSTRACT
Background@#Fungal pneumonia is a common infectious complication of hematological cancer (HC) patients. In this retrospective study, the objective was set to identify the risk factors and outcome of fungal pneumonia in adult HC patients. @*Materials and Methods@#This retrospective study was conducted with adult (>16 years) HC patients from January 2017 and December 2018. @*Results@#During the study period, of 181 patients included 76 were diagnosed with fungal pneumonia. The most common HC was identified as acute myeloid leukaemia (40%). Of the participating patients, 52 (29%) were hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients.The median age of patients with fungal pneumonia was significantly greater 57 vs. 48 (odds ratio [OR] 1.08) and they had longer hospitalization durations (OR 1.14). Overall, 37 patients (20%) died, and 28-day mortality was significantly greater among patients with fungal pneumonia than without fungal pneumonia (33% vs. 11%). The most significant risk factors for mortality in fungal pneumonia were identified as need of intensive care unit (ICU) (OR 191.2, P <0.001) and the need of vasopressor support (OR81.6, P <0.012). ICU-mortality was (88%). @*Conclusion@#Fungal pneumonia is a lethal complication in HC patients. Intensive care need is the most important predictive factor for mortality.
