title: [Urinary candidiasis in neonates (author's transl)].
abstract: Urologic surgery in neonates is seldom needed. From 1971 to 1978 only 16 neonates were submitted to urologic operations or endoscopy. UTI was seen after treatment in 15 neonates. 8 out of 10 developed nosocomial infections bearing catheters or splints inside the urinary tract. Four patients developed urinary tract candidiasis after antibacterial treatment, four additional children showed orointestinal candidiasis. While oral nystatin or clotrimazole treatment in orointestinal candidiasis was successful in preventing systemic infection, amphotericin B or recently fluorocytosine was given in cases with urinary tract candidiasis.
