Renewed increase in Candida albicans among yeast isolates from the Gottingen university hospital

Abstract

We report on the recurrence of Candida albicans among yeast isolates from our university hospital. After a decline in occurrence which coincided with the onset of the use of fluconazole, the fraction of C. albicans recovered and at present has reached the pre-fluconazole level. No permanent rise of C. glabrata or C. krusei has been observed.
