Abstract
The empirical management of acute transplant rejection with corticosteroid boluses and plasma exchange can help to spread the underlying and undiagnosed fungal infection. It is considered that an increase in the regular dose of anidulafungin is necessary after plasma exchange. To date, fungal echinocandin resistance did not seem to be a major cause for concern in the treatment of patients with invasive mycoses. However, there is increasing evidence of natural and acquired resistance resulting in life-threatening infections and clinical failure.
