They have emerged as an opportunistic pathogen, particularly in immunocompromised hosts and most infections have been associated with intravenous catheters in these patients. We review the isolates in blood cultures of <jats:italic>Rhodotorula mucilaginosa<\/jats:italic> in our Hospital. We describe the demographic and clinical features of the cases and the antifungal susceptibility profiles of the isolates. Selected patients had an isolation of <jats:italic>R.\u00a0mucilaginosa<\/jats:italic> in blood cultures in our tertiary care Hospital. All data were collected retrospectively from clinical records during 5\u00a0years. We report 8 isolates in blood, two of them were considered contaminants. Immunosuppression, surgery, previous antibiotic therapy were common clinical features. For all the isolates, minimum inhibitory concentration (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MIC<\/jats:styled-content>) values were high for echinocandins and azoles and low for amphotericin B and 5\u2010flucytosine. One strain showed atypical susceptibility profile. <jats:italic>Rhodotorula mucilaginosa<\/jats:italic> may be present on the skin and blood cultures can be contaminated. Fungaemia due to <jats:italic>R.\u00a0mucilaginosa<\/jats:italic> is a rare clinical entity which requires risk factors but clinically relevant because of the multiresistant profile. <jats:italic>Rhodotorula mucilaginosa<\/jats:italic> shows high <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MIC<\/jats:styled-content> values for azoles and echinocandins, therefore amphotericin B and flucytosine must be administered as antifungal therapy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/myc.12703","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,9,18]],"date-time":"2017-09-18T15:06:25Z","timestamp":1505747185000},"page":"35-39","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Isolation of <i>Rhodotorula mucilaginosa<\/i> from blood cultures in a tertiary care hospital"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"61","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5888-7706","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Iker","family":"Falces\u2010Romero","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Microbiology Department Hospital Universitario La Paz  Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emilio","family":"Cendejas\u2010Bueno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Microbiology Department Hospital Universitario La Paz  Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mar\u00eda Pilar","family":"Romero\u2010G\u00f3mez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Microbiology Department Hospital Universitario La Paz  Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julio","family":"Garc\u00eda\u2010Rodr\u00edguez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Microbiology Department Hospital Universitario La Paz  Madrid Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/AAC.01647-12"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3947\/ic.2013.45.3.339"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/507036"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0255-0857.136576"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.35695"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.diagmicrobio.2011.08.009"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mmcr.2014.08.006"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s101560200017"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/13693780701381289"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM197706092962301"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11046-012-9552-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10156-011-0347-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1439-0507.2009.01816.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.41.11.5233-5235.2003"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/AAC.50.3.917-921.2006"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1469-0691.12360"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_1","first-page":"76","article-title":"Fungemia caused by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa.
