| Popis: |
This study reports a case of multidrug resistant Candida krusei as the cause of early neonatal sepsis in a term small-for-gestational age neonate weighing 1680 g that successfully responded to voriconazole therapy. Both blood culture and urine culture of the neonate sent on day 4 and day 8 respectively showed Gram positive oval budding yeast cells on Gram staining which was confirmed as C. krusei susceptible only to voriconazole by Vitek 2 Compact (Biomérieux, France) automated system. Voriconazole was given for fourteen days leading to good clinical response with microbiological clearance of fungus from blood and no side-effects. |
