Abstract
The objective of the study was the analysis of incidence and outcome of invasive fungal disease (IFD) in children treated for malignancy (PHO, paediatric hematology-oncology) or undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) over a period of six consecutive years in nationwide study. A total number of 5628 patients with newly diagnosed malignancies and 971 patients after HCT (741 allo-HCT and 230 auto-HCT) were screened for infectious complications in biennial reports. IFD incidence was lower among PHO patients: 8.8% vs 21.2% (P < .0001) and survival from IFD was better: 94.2% vs 84.1% (P < .0001). Auto-HCT patients had lower incidence (10.9% vs 24.4%) and lower mortality than allo-HCT patients. Introduction of national antifungal prophylaxis programme in HCT and acute leukaemia patients decreased incidence of IFD in HCT (from 23.1% to 13.4%) and AML on conventional chemotherapy (from 36% to 23%) but not in ALL patients during chemotherapy. In multivariate analysis, the incidence of IFD was higher in patients after HCT, diagnosed for ALL, AML or NHL, and in patients > 10 years old. Factors contributing to death with infection were as follows: undergoing HCT, diagnosis of acute leukaemia (ALL or AML) and duration of treatment of infection > 21 days. In conclusion, the incidence of IFD in allo-HCT and in AML patients on chemotherapy has decreased after introduction of national programme of antifungal prophylaxis, while the incidence of IFD in ALL patients on chemotherapy did not change significantly. The outcome of IFD both in PHO and HCT patients has largely improved in comparison with historical international data.

Abstract
Incidence and outcome of microbiologically documented bacterial/viral infections and invasive fungal disease (IFD) in children and adults after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) were compared in 650 children and 3200 adults in multicenter cross-sectional nationwide study. Infections were diagnosed in 60.8% children and 35.0% adults, including respectively 69.1% and 63.5% allo-HCT, and 33.1% and 20.8% auto-HCT patients. The incidence of bacterial infections was higher in children (36.0% vs 27.6%; p < 0.0001). Infections with Gram-negative bacteria were more frequent than Gram-positives in adults (64.6% vs 44.8%; p < 0.0001). Outcome of bacterial infections was better in children (95.5% vs 91.4%; p = 0.0011). The IFD incidence (25.3% vs 6.3%; p < 0.0001) and outcome (88.0% vs 74.9%; p < 0.0001) were higher in children. The incidence of viral infections was higher in children after allo-HCT (56.3% vs 29.3%; p < 0.0001), and auto-HCT (6.6% vs 0.8%; p < 0.0001). Outcome of viral infections was better in children (98.6% vs 92.3%; p = 0.0096). Infection-related mortality was 7.8% in children and 18.4% in adults (p < 0.0001). No child after auto-HCT died of infection. Adult age, mismatched transplants, acute leukemia, chronic GVHD, CMV reactivation, infection with Gram-negatives, and duration of infection > 21 days were risk factors for death from infection. In conclusion, pediatric patients have 2.9-fold higher incidence and 2.5-fold better outcome of infections than adults after HCT.
