Primary renal candidiasis associated with a penile prosthesis in a diabetic man
1989
Abstract Infectious complications of penile prostheses are unusual even in diabetic patients, and generally involve Staphylococcus or gram-negative enteric organisms. This paper presents a diabetic patient who developed fatal, primary renal candidiasis associated with an infected penile prosthesis. He is the fourth patient we have seen with refractory nauses and vomiting associated with a cryptic urinary infection. Invasive Candida should always be considered in a diabetic patient with evidence of a urinary tract infection.
