| Core Tip |
Liver cirrhosis is a condition that causes immune dysfunction, which predisposes the patient to infections. In this study, we investigated the presence of mycotic microorganisms in ascites to calculate their incidence in patients in a Mexico City hospital. For this purpose, ascites samples were taken, and mycotic cultures were performed, revealing an incidence of 8. The microorganisms identified were Rhodotorula minuta, and Candida parapsilosis and Candida albicans. It was found that chronic renal disease and secondary prophylaxis for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis are associated with spontaneous fungal peritonitis and that patients with positive mycotic cultures have a high mortality risk. |
