摘要

我们在此报告一例侵袭性念珠菌病，在胸部电脑断层扫描(CT)上表现罕见。胸部CT示多发小空腔病变及结节，周围有磨玻璃影，双侧胸腔积液。虽然这一CT表现被认为是肺曲霉病的特异性表现，但我们抽取了两组血培养标本，结果显示本病例为白色念珠菌。开始抗真菌治疗，胸部CT显示明显改善。据我们所知，这是第一例描述侵袭性念珠菌病多发肺空洞病变的病例报告。

Invasive candidiasis presenting multiple pulmonary cavitary lesions on chest computed tomography.

We herein report a case of invasive candidiasis presenting rare findings on chest computed tomography (CT). The chest CT scan showed multiple small cavitary lesions and nodules with surrounding ground-glass opacity, and also bilateral pleural effusion. Although this CT finding is thought as specific for pulmonary aspergillosis, two sets of blood culture specimens were drawn which yielded Candida albicans in our case. Antifungal therapy was started and the chest CT findings showed a remarkable improvement. To our knowledge, this is the first case report describing multiple pulmonary cavitary lesions in invasive candidiasis.
