Sentinel Case of <i>Candida auris</i> in the Western United States Following Prolonged Occult Colonization in a Returned Traveler from India

2019-04-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Candida auris is an emerging multidrug-resistant yeast with high mortality. We report the sentinel C. auris case on the United States West Coast in a patient who relocated from India. We identified close phylogenetic relatedness to the South Asia clade and ERG11 Y132F and FKS1 S639Y mutations potentially explaining antifungal resistance.
