Abstract
A 73-year-old man with a history of type 2 diabetes mellitus, nephrolithiasis, and recurrent urinary tract infections caused by Candida glabrata was admitted to our hospital. Urosepsis was diagnosed and C. glabrata was isolated from urine and blood cultures. Computed tomography intravenous pyelography (CT-IVP) revealed bilateral filling defects caused by renal fungal balls. Treatment initially comprised intravenous anidulafungin coupled with continuous local anidulafungin irrigation via bilateral nephrostomy tubes, which was followed by high-dose oral fluconazole. This regimen successfully eradicated the C. glabrata in follow-up cultures.
