Abstract

Fungal diseases are an important cause of mortality in immunocompromised hosts, and their incidence in pediatric cancer patients in low- to middle-income countries is underestimated. In this review, we present relevant, up-to-date information about the most common opportunistic and endemic fungal diseases among children with cancer, their geographic distribution, and recommended diagnostics and treatment. Efforts to improve the care of children with cancer and fungal disease must address the urgent need for sustainable and cost-effective solutions that improve training, fungal disease testing capability, and the use of available resources. We hope that the collective information presented here will be used to advise healthcare providers, regional and country health leaders, and policymakers of the current challenges in diagnosing and treating fungal infections in children with cancer in low- to middle-income countries.

Keywords: antifungals; fungal biomarkers; fungus; low- to middle-income countries; pediatric; resource-limited settings.
