Abstract
We present a case of a 35-year-old male with history of intravenous heroin use, who presented with acute limb ischemia and was found to have Candida lusitaniae endocarditis. After an urgent intervention to salvage the right lower extremity, successful outcome of his infection was achieved by a combined surgical and antifungal treatment. Published by Mosby, Inc.Entities:
