pubmed:abstractText
Immune deficiency generally leads to infections. Cancer chemotherapy, medical interventions and various investigational procedures are important factors in the development of infection. In recent decades, there has been a major change in most cancer centers in the etiology of bacterial infections occurring in the immunocompromised host, most infections now being caused by gram-positive organisms. This might be partly due to prophylactic use of agents effective against gram-negative bacteria. The quinolones are now widely used in the treatment of serious infections of the immunocompromised patient. Prophylaxis with quinolones is also practised in cancer centers.
