Candida utilisis rarely described as an agent causing neonatal Candidemia. We report a fatal case of neonatal sepsis caused by C. utilis. Treatment was initiated with fluconazole. Despite resuscitative measures, the infant succumbed on day four of admission in the neonatal intensive care unit. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of C. utiliscausing neonatal Candidemia in India. Our report and review highlight the importance of speciation and choice of antifungal therapy for successful clinical management of such cases the need of such important clinical and epidemiological data. |
