Management of a renal fungal bezoar caused by multidrug-resistant Candida glabrata .
Proceedings of the Baylor University Medical Center 2016 October
We describe our management of an immunocompetent individual who developed obstructive uropathy and candidemia as a result of a fungal bezoar in the kidney. These sequelae arose from candiduria, provoked after several courses of antibiotics. Successful treatment included therapy with both culture-appropriate intravenous antifungals and operative intervention, including direct irrigation of the affected kidney with amphotericin B, relief of renal obstruction with a ureteral stent, a percutaneous nephrostomy tube, and ultimately endoscopic removal of the fungal bezoar. Our patient was successfully treated as evidenced by negative urine culture and lack of ongoing symptomatology.
