Candida Bezoars in Adults: Determining Optimal Management.

Abstract
Fungal bezoars, or fungal balls, are rare pathologic consequences of funguria in immunocompromised patients. Current treatment recommendations are based on expert opinion and low level evidence. We present a case of a Candida glabrata bezoar that was effectively treated with percutaneous amphotericin B instillations. A subsequent literature review is presented to assess the available case reports and treatment outcomes of Candida spp. bezoars in adults.
