Abstract
The clinical course of a patient with a polymicrobial pneumonia that included Saccharomyces cerevisiae infection is described. S. cerevisiae was recovered from autopsy cultures of the lungs, spleen, oral mucosa, and small intestine, and organisms morphologically consistent with S. cerevisiae were visualized in histologic sections of the lung. The role of this organism as a human pathogen is reviewed.Entities:
