[Candida sepsis in premature newborns].
The incidence of candida septicemia in the neonatal period is increasing. We report a case of a preterm baby with acute anuric renal failure resulting from systemic candidiasis and we discuss of pathogenic factors, diagnosis and modern therapy. Prompt and opportune antimycotic therapy is the only chance for survival. The disease is generally fatal unless treated in time.
