ABSTRACT
We report three cases of term newborns with Congenital Cutaneous Candidosis (CCC) occured in a ten months period. Two of these showed respiratory distress that require mechanical ventilation and the administration of exogenous surfactant in one case. All the three cases recovered after therapy with fluconazole. Early onset of severe respiratory distress may require intubation and mechanical ventilation, and systemic involvement requires systemic antimichotic therapy. We did not find any predisposing factors of such a rare disease, in spite of the occurrence of three cases in a short period of time.
