In 1995-2000 we examined in the mycological laboratory 8663 specimens for fungal infection by microscopical examination cultivation. The species was identified by the germ-tube test, fermentation and assimilation of carbohydrates. We examined 3421 specimens of faeces and found fungal infection in 37%, the most common was Candida albicans and Geotrichum candidum. In 1736 specimens of sputum and bronchial lavage, yeast microorganisms were isolated in 48%, mostly Candida albicans. In 2697 specimens of skin and mucous membranes in 26% we found fungal microorganisms. We examined 550 samples from the external ear, 40% was mycologically positive, the most common infectious agent of otomycosis was Aspergillus sp. Among 87 specimens from eyes we isolated molds. Acremonium sp., Fusarium sp. and Penicillium sp. Among 123 samples of urine, 41% were mycologically positive, most common was Candida albicans. In 49 blood samples yeasts were found only three times.
