Vulvovaginal candidiasis is usually caused by Candida albicans, but other Candida species can be the causative agent.

Part Description

LP157280-1   Candida lusitaniae
Candida lusitaniae is a species of yeast in the genus Candida. C. lusitaniae was initially described as a rare cause of fungemia, with fewer than 30 cases reported between 1979 and 1990. However, there has been a marked increase in the number of recognized cases of candidemia due to this organism in the last two decades. Candida lusitaniae is capable of inducing pyelonephritis as well as septicemia. Bone marrow transplantation and high dose cytoreductive chemotherapy have both been identified as risk factors for infections with this organism. These patients are often neutropenic for extended periods of time, leaving them susceptible to bacterial and fungal infections, including Candidal infections. Some investigators have theorized that the widespread use of Amphotericin B empiric antifungal therapy selects for infections with Candida lusitaniae.
