(Excluding Endemic Fungal Infections) 39
18 Associate Professor in Pathology and Senior Adviser in Pathology and Hematology Armed Forces Medical College, Pune Formerly at Army Hospital Research & Referral, New Delhi Graduate of Lady Hardinge Medical College, New Delhi. Post Graduate, AFMC, Pune. Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Hematopathology at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi Gold Medal for Standing First in MD (Pathology examination), Pune University Col Jyoti Kotwal MBBS, MD (Pathology) Abstract Histological and cultural evidence from tissue biopsies or resected material is required for definitive diagnosis of systemic fungal infections. However it is not always possible to fulfil this criterion. The current methods of diagnosis of IFI include signs and symptoms, microscopy, culture, serology, imaging procedures and biopsy. All tissues from patients with suspected systemic fungal infections should be stained with special fungal stains (GMS and PAS) as grams stain and H&E stain may miss out the fungal infection or misinterpret it as fibrin filaments. As far as culture is concerned, reliable results can be obtained from normally sterile body fluids like blood, CSF, pleural effusion and biopsy material. These fungi should then be identified till the species level. Despite stringent repeated cultures only 50% of autopsy proven candidiasis have positive blood culture. Thus thre is an important role of serology. Several antigen and antibody test methods have been used for systemic fungal infections. Antibody tests have a sensitivity of 17-90%, but the tests show delayed or decreased reaction in immuno-supressed and thus have a limited role. The antigen detection tests like CandTec have more utility. The antibody test has no role in diagnosis of aspergillosis. However the FDA approved galactomannan antigen assay shows high sensitivity and specificity, especially now with the lowered cut-offs for the test. However there is a problem of false negative in paediatric patients and those on anti-mycotic therapies and of false positivity in patients on â-lactam antibiotics. The use of this test is in the nascent stage in India and has been tried at CMC, Vellore and SGRH, New Delhi. There may be a major role for PCR for the early detection of systemic fungal infections and in this context the use of rapid multiplex PCR techniques which take 6 hrs to give results need to be clinically evaluated. This is still used as a research toll and is not available for clinical use. For mucor mycosis, tissue diagnosis is the major diagnostic method as no reliable serological, PCR based or skin tests are available. Pan fungal PCR on serial serum samples might be useful for diagnosis of disseminated mucor mycosis and is under evaluation. To conclude, a combination of various methods with regular screening are necessary for early diagnosis of systemic fungal infections. 40
