Further, dueto compromised host resistance, certain clinical conditions such as HIV/AIDS,diabetes mellitus, and major organ-related problems like chronic renal failure,chronic liver and chronic lung diseases etc., make these patients potentiallyvulnerable to a variety of opportunisticinfections... The challenges posed bythe opportunistic pathogens are enormous. Early clinical suspicion, promptmorphological identification and timely management are essential so as toprevent high morbidity and mortality associated with these infections.
