Material and methods: 31 literature sources were analyzed. Results: Modern information has been obtained on clinical and laboratory diagnostic methods and pharmacological agents for the treatment of invasive mycoses. Conclusion: One of the priorities in the fght against invasive mycoses among patients in intensive care units is timely diagnosis of fungal infection, followed by preventive therapy or targeted exposure to an established source of invasive mycosis.
