Factors associated with failure of antifungal therapy were examined in 42 cancer patients with fusariosis (1987-1997). Thirty-six patients (86%) had leukemia and 39 (93%) were neutropenic. Disseminated infection was the most common presentation. The majority (83%) received amphotericin B-based therapy. Thirty patients (71%) failed therapy. No patient with persistent neutropenia responded.
