We have estimated the burden of fungal infections in Qatar. The aim of the study was to compute and determine the burden of serious fungal infections, in an attempt to estimate fungal disease frequency, which has not previously been attempted in this country. Disease statistics were collected from the Microbiology laboratory database and from 2011 <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">WHO<\/jats:styled-content> statistics. The data are expressed per 100\u00a0000 populations. The reported cases of candidaemia rose to 288 with an estimated rate of 15.4\/100\u00a0000. A real increase in the burden of candidaemia was found over that previously reported (12.9\/100\u00a0000) for the years 2004\u20132009. <jats:italic>Candida<\/jats:italic> peritonitis was estimated in 8.02 cases\/100\u00a0000 population. Recurrent (\u22654\u00a0year<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>) vaginal infections affect at least 32\u00a0782 women with a rate of 3506\/100\u00a0000 inhabitants. Severe asthma with fungal sensitisation affected 1486 people, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis 1126 people and chronic pulmonary aspergillosis 176 people. Rhinosinusitis, mucormycosis and <jats:italic>Fusarium<\/jats:italic> infection occurred at rates of 2.31, 1.23, 1.86 cases\/100\u00a0000 respectively. The estimated rate of invasive aspergillosis was very low (0.6\/100\u00a0000). Low rates of <jats:italic>Cryptococcus<\/jats:italic> meningitis and <jats:italic>Pneumocystis<\/jats:italic> pneumonia are attributable to low <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">HIV<\/jats:styled-content> infection rates. In conclusion, fungal infections are increasingly reported, especially candidaemia. Surveillance and guidelines are needed to optimise care and management of common fungal infections. In addition, a fungal registry system needs development for surveillance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/myc.12386","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,10,9]],"date-time":"2015-10-09T06:51:15Z","timestamp":1444373475000},"page":"51-57","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Burden
