• Description: The study included 63 isolates from 61 patients. The most frequently isolated species were C. albicans and C. glabrata (28 % and 19 %, respectively). However, after exclusion of isolates from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, the percentage changed in favour of C. albicans and C. parapsilosis (25 % and 17 %, respectively). The MIC data showed a high susceptibility of yeasts to echinocandins and amphotericin B. Ten (16 %) strains were cross-resistant to azoles (mostly C. glabrata).
