title: Neonatal renal candidal bezoar.
abstract: Renal candidal bezoar is uncommonly encountered in neonatal intensive care. An affected neonate who improved only after surgical removal of obstructive fungus from the renal pelvis and local irrigation with amphotericin B is described. The need for early consideration of surgical intervention is stressed.
