Popis: Infectious complications play a prominent role in postoperative outcome of pancreatoduodenectomy. The analysis of the microorganisms responsible for these complications has focused on bacteria, and there is little documentation regarding the role of fungi. We present a case series with 8 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy with positive bile cultures for Candida spp., in order to analyse the postoperative outcome.
