ABSTRACT
Candidiasis in the stomach after hiatus hernia sac operation has not previously been reported in the literature. We present a case in which a 46 year old woman developed candidiasis of the stomach, two months after hiatus hernia sac operation. The disease was primarily diagnosed radiologically and was later confirmed by gastroscopy and culture of gastric fluid. The pentagastrin test was performed six months after the operation and showed significantly reduced acid production. The most probable explanation for the condition is peroperative accidental lesion of branches of the vagus nerve resulting in reduced acid production thus facilitating growth of gastric candidiasis.
