[Vertebral osteomyelitis due to Candida tropicalis secondary to candidemia. A case report].

Abstract:

:Candida spp. vertebral osteomyelitis is rare. Clinical presentation is unspecific. Diagnosis requires mycological culture of a biopsy specimen. Therapeutic management is based on prolonged course of azole or liposomal amphotericin B. We report the case of Candida tropicalis vertebral osteomyelitis with epidural involvement in a 27 years-old male patient, followed for S-β-thalassemia and with a history of candidemia. The fungus was isolated from a needle biopsy of the vertebral disk. The outcome was favorable under antifungal treatment by amphotericin B and voriconazole.
