Abstract excerpt

During construction work (2017-2019), an increase in Aspergillus flavus infections was noted among pediatric patients, the majority of whom were receiving amphotericin B prophylaxis. Microsatellite genotyping was used to characterize the outbreak. A total of 153 A. flavus isolates of clinical and environmental origin were included. Clinical isolates included 140 from 119 patients. Eight patients were...
