Abstract
Antifungal susceptibilities were determined from 80 urinary isolates of Can dida species collected in 1994 and 1998. Our findings demonstrate increasin g geometric means of fluconazole MICs and fluconazole resistance in Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis (those for Candida glabrata were unchanged ) within the 4-year span. Amphotericin B and voriconazole MICs remained con stant.
