Psoas Abscess Caused by Candida Glabrata: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

Psoas abscess caused by Candida is an uncommon condition. We report a case of psoas abscess caused by Candida glabrata, which was completely resolved with drainage and oral voriconazole. Because of the nonspecific clinical presentation, the diagnosis of psoas abscess can be a challenge. Prompt suspicion, with early diagnosis and drainage with an appropriate antifungal agent, seems to improve the clinical outcome.
