Prospective multicenter surveillance of clinically isolated Aspergillus species revealed azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus isolates with TR34/L98H mutation in the Kyoto and Shiga regions of Japan

Abstract excerpt

The prevalence of azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus (ARAF) in Japan is unclear. We aimed to investigate the epidemiology of clinically isolated Aspergillus species and the frequency of azole resistance in Aspergillus species, particularly Aspergillus fumigatus, in the Kyoto and Shiga regions of Japan. Strains of clinically isolated Aspergillus species were prospectively collected from nine acute care...
