Article Description

We describe the first case of infection of a neurosurgical shunt by Candida glabrata in an adult. The risk factors, clinical picture and response to therapy have been similar to similar cases caused by other Candida sp. We must emphasize the unequivocal features of infection and the rapid and probably complete response to removal of the device.
