title: Candida of the bladder wall: computerized tomography demonstration.
abstract: We describe a patient with a history of vulvar cancer, aplastic anemia and diabetes who was found to have a bladder wall lesion on a computerized tomography scan, which was compatible with malignancy. Pathological examination of the biopsy specimen revealed the lesion to be Candida. The differential diagnosis of filling defects in the bladder as seen on computerized tomography is discussed.
