Disseminated candidiasis caused by a sucrose-negative variant of Candida tropicalis.

D G Ahearn, J B Lawrence.   

Abstract

A patient suffering from leukemic transformation of a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma developed fatal disseminated candidiasis caused by a sucrose-negative variant of Candida tropicalis. The results of histopathological tests showed massive tissue invasion in many organs. The course of infection and the tissue morphology of the etiological agent were indistinguishable from those of C. albicans and typical C. tropicalis strains.
