We report two cancer patients with catheter-related fungemia due to C. dubliniensis infection in Taiwan. The two isolates were confirmed to the species level using an oligonucleotide array system and sequence analysis, and both showed high invitro susceptibilities to nine antifungal agents. The catheters were removed, and both patients responded well to antifungal treatment. Although this type of infection is rare, physicians should consider C. dubliniensis as one of the possible pathogens causing catheter-related infections in Taiwan. ? 2012 .[SDGs]SDG3amphotericin B; anidulafungin; antifungal agent; caspofungin; cefepime; ceftazidime; ertapenem; fluconazole; flucytosine; itraconazole; micafungin; piperacillin plus tazobactam; voriconazole; adult; aged; antifungal susceptibility; article; cancer patient; Candida dubliniensis; candidemia; case report; catheter infection; catheter removal; female; fungus isolation; human; in vitro study; male; nonhuman; nucleotide sequence; sequence analysis; Taiwan; treatment outcome; treatment responsejournal article10.1016/j.jmii.2012.10.0012-s2.0-84882262687
