Abstract
Abstract Fungal neonatal infection with Candida is rare, despite a prevalence of vaginal mycosis of up to 30% during pregnancy. Although there are no recommendations to treat asymptomatic vaginal colonization with candida in healthy pregnant women, this case report highlights that asymptomatic colonization with Candida can lead to chorioamnionitis and systemic neonatal infection with leukemoid reaction. Treatment of asymptomatic candida colonization in women at risk of preterm delivery should be considered.
