“…The investigators documented a progressive increase in the resistance to FCZ among C. neoformans species complex isolates and the results from each periods, 1997–2000 (7.3%), 2001–2004 (10.9%) and 2005–2007 (11.7%) were compared, showing a rise on the resistance . However, there is no real connection between in vitro antifungal susceptibility testing for Cryptococcus and the clinical outcomes, which confuses the clinicians . C. neoformans species complex has been increasingly connected to azole therapy failure cases for more than a decade .…”

“…A criptococose é uma doença grave e global, com maior impacto em países em desenvolvimento pela dificuldade de acesso à medicação, tanto para a micose, quanto para a doença subjacente mais comum, a aids (WHO, 2018). Similar ao observado na literatura, os 96 casos de neurocriptococose do Instituto de Infectologia Emilio Ribas ocorreram predominantemente portadores do HIV (96,7%) e, como em outros estudos, a maioria do sexo masculino (77,1%), refletindo a população mais atingida da epidemia de AIDS (MDODO et al, 2011;LEE et al, 2012;AGUDELO et al, 2015;CHEN et al, 2015;ARECHAVALA et al, 2018;SHAHEEN et al, 2018).…”

“…Isto acontece devido a exposição prévia e prolongada ao fármaco, ocasionando na resistência adquirida, ou em razão da seleção de células com baixa suscetibilidade ao antifúngico (JOSEPH-HORNE et al, 1995;BARCHIESI et al, 2000;SMITH et al, 2015). Esta forma de resistência é associada principalmente à terapia de manutenção, leva ao aparecimento de isolados multirresistentes, falha terapêutica e recidivas em criptococose e pode ser interpretada como resistência clínica ao FCZ (ALVES et al, 1997;COX, 1999;ALLER et al, 2000;AGUDELO et al, 2015;NASRI et al, 2016).…”
