Documento de consenso de la Sociedad de Infectología Pediátrica sobre el tratamiento de la infección fúngica basado en la respuesta inmunológica

This document aims to summarise currently available data on immunity-based therapy of fungal infections and to provide basic knowledge on the immune response to fungal infections. This helps to understand how, in selected cases, immunity-based therapy may improve the response to standard antifungal treatment. The potential indications of immunity-based therapy in the paediatric patient are reviewed, although there is still a lack of scientific evidence for its use in children.
