Editorial: The Risky Business of Fungal Infections in Patients with Cirrhosis. Hospitalized patients with cirrhosis have a high rate of mortality.

Increasing awareness of FI along with the application of new diagnostic tools in species identification will provide the opportunity to improve patient outcomes.
