The mortality associated with invasive fungal infections remains high with that involving rare yeast pathogens other than Candida being no exception. This is in part due to the severe underlying conditions typically predisposing patients to these healthcare-related infections (most often severe neutropenia in patients with haematological malignancies), and in part due to the often challenging intrinsic susceptibility pattern of the pathogens that potentially leads to delayed appropriate antifungal treatment. A panel of experts of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) Fungal Infection Study Group (EFISG) and the European Confederation of Medical Mycology (ECMM) undertook a data review and compiled guidelines for the diagnostic tests and procedures for detection and management of rare invasive yeast infections. The rare yeast pathogens were defined and limited to the following genera/species: Cryptococcus adeliensis, Cryptococcus albidus, Cryptococcus curvatus, Cryptococcus flavescens, Cryptococcus laurentii and Cryptococcus uniguttulatus (often published under the name Filobasidium uniguttulatum), Malassezia furfur, Malassezia globosa, Malassezia pachydermatis and Malassezia restricta, Pseudozyma spp., Rhodotorula glutinis, Rhodotorula minuta and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Sporobolomyces spp., Trichosporon asahii, Trichosporon asteroides, Trichosporon dermatis, Trichosporon inkin, Trichosporon jirovecii, Trichosporon loubieri, Trichosporon mucoides and Trichosporon mycotoxinivorans and ascomycetous ones: Geotrichum candidum, Kodamaea ohmeri, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (incl. S. boulardii) and Saprochaete capitatae (Magnusiomyces (Blastoschizomyces) capitatus formerly named Trichosporon capitatum or Geotrichum (Dipodascus) capitatum) and Saprochaete clavata. Recommendations about the microbiological investigation and detection of invasive infection were made and current knowledge on the most appropriate antifungal and supportive treatment was reviewed. In addition, remarks about antifungal susceptibility testing were made.

“…Actinomycoses have been round in lungs, paranasal sinuses, and wounds with extracorporeal contamination, as well as in intrauterine infections in users of intrauterine devices (26,29). Skill lesions and dermatitis can also be caused by microorgallisms typical to water damage in buildings [eg, dermatitis caused by S~~orol~olonzyces (30) and an intravascular infusion canule infected by Exophialn (31)l. In Sweden, an increase in the occurrence of invasive mycoses has been reported (32).…”

“…However, the hypertoxigenic strain C. difficile RT027 has rarely been detected in Asia to date, specifically not in China before 2013. 3 In addition, cases of C. difficile RT078 have not been reported in China. We report a novel binary toxin-positive non-027, non-078 C. difficile associated with severe diarrhea recently identified in China.…”

“…salmonicolor rarely infects humans, and the infections reported include endophalmitis, meninigitis, lymphadenitis, and dermitis. 2,3,6,7 Herein, we present the first reported case of a central-line-associated bloodstream infection caused by S. salmonicolor. Our finding indicates that S. salmonicolor can cause catheter-associated infection and further expands the clinical spectrum of S. salmonicolor infections.…”
