Candida africana has been recovered principally as a causative agent of vulvovaginal
candidiasis (VVC) from different countries, which is likely to be misidentified as the typical …

Background Candida auris is a recently reported Candida species that is phenotypically
similar to Candida haemulonii and related to hospital outbreaks. This organism can be …

This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated reported prevalence and diagnostic
