Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Fungal vascular graft and endograft infections (VGEIs) are rare but life-threatening infections. Candida spp. is the most frequent fungal agent. Main risk factor is prostheto-digestive fistula. Best therapeutic management is unknown. The aim of FUNGIVAS study is to describe epidemiology, clinical features, therapeutic management and outcomes of fungal VGEIs and determine prognosis factors associated with therapeutic management. This study retrospectively gathers fungal VGEIs from 12 university hospital centers in France from January 2013 to January 2023. Patients will be identified from mycology laboratories that have diagnosed the fungal infection on a vascular sample. Demographic, clinical, biological, imaging and outcome data will be collected using a secure and anonymous questionnaire
