About this trial

Fungal vascular graft and endograft infections (VGEIs) are rare but life-threatening infections. Best therapeutic management is unknown. This study retrospectively gathers fungal VGEIs from 12 university hospital centers in France over a 10 year's period in order to describe their epidemiology, clinical features, therapeutic management and outcomes. Focusing on Candida spp. VGEIs, we aim to determine prognosis factors associated with therapeutic management
