Solid organ transplants are increasingly common medical-surgical treatments and suppose a significant improvement in the quality of life of patients with serious diseases. Chronic immunosuppression, that is necessary to avoid rejection of the transplanted organ, increases the risk of complications mainly of infectious nature. Among the infectious causes we find those of fungal etiology being the most frequent those caused by Candida albicans.
