Taking a Closer Look: Clinical and Histopathological Characteristics of Culture-Positive versus Culture-Negative Pulmonary Mucormycosis.

Although the differences investigated did not reach statistical significance, there were trends suggesting that culture-positive patients were more likely to have acute myeloid leukemia (60% vs. 27%, p = 0.19), a history of HCT (80% vs. 53%, p = 0.31), severe lymphopenia (absolute lymphocyte count ≤ 100/μL, 100% vs. 73%, p = 0.36), and monocytopenia (60% vs. 20%, p = 0.11) than culture-negative patients.
