Targeted Screening to Predict Magnusiomyces Infections in Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Recipients: Evidence from an Outbreak Setting
spp. episodes, with only 10% occurring in patients with hematological malignancies. Our study describes a prolonged clonal outbreak confined to an HCT unit and provides a detailed evaluation of a targeted screening approach in this setting, highlighting the challenges of early identification and prediction of invasive infections. Further studies are needed to define the optimal surveillance and prevention strategies.
