FIG. 1.

Kaplan-Meier survival curves for underlying disease, zygomycosis infection, and actuarial disease (all 24 subjects). Crosses indicate deaths or end of treatment with posaconazole. The solid line represents percent survival from underlying disease; it does not consider any specific antifungal therapy or surgery. Those deaths were due to complications from patients underlying condition and not due to zygomycosis. The dotted line represents percent survival from zygomycosis. Those deaths were due only to zygomycosis. The hatched line represents survival considering all causes. The inset expands the view of percent survival during the first 40 days of posaconazole treatment. All deaths from zygomycosis occurred early in treatment, suggesting posaconazole treatment for more than 30 days is associated with long-term survival. Deaths not due to zygomycosis but from underlying disease were more likely after 40 days of posaconazole treatment.
