ABSTRACT
A case is presented of renal candidiasis complicated by obstructive uropathy in a 4 month old infant. Management was successful with surgical decompression combined with peri-operative amphotericin B, followed by 3 weeks of oral ketoconazole and subsequently 6 weeks of oral fluconazole. Fluconazole was substituted for ketoconazole owing to persistent candiduria, and achieved rapid urinary sterilization. Fluconazole is an effective and less toxic alternative to prolonged courses of amphotericin B in the treatment of neonatal renal candidiasis.
