ABSTRACT
Acrodermatitis Enteropathica (AE) is an important nutritional disorder of children affecting both innate and cell mediated immunity. It predisposes to secondary bacterial and candida superinfections. We describe an infant with typical features of AE who had candida infection with a fulminant course. Need of early recognition and prompt initiation of therapy for fungal infection in AE is emphasized.
