Abstract

There are many published international recommendations and guidelines for the management of Invasive Fungal Infections (IFIs). It is very important to develop Iranian recommendations to implement those guidelines in a daily routine practice in Iran considering the local specifications. This was the objective of this meeting, which was held on November 3rd, 2011 in Tehran. 17 Iranian scientific leaders met and reviewed all the available published International Guidelines for management of IFIs in different groups of patients. This was followed by an open discussion to develop local recommendations for appropriate implementation of International Guidelines using the available treatments in Iran. This review shows the outcome of this meeting. We believe that, putting these recommendations into practice may lead to better results of the management of cases with IFIs.
