Abstract

An autopsy case of pulmonary candidiasis occurring in an neonatal girl was reported. The mycological examination of the lung take at autopsy revealed only Candida albicans and followed by the elucidation under the microscopic sections prepared with special stains; periodic acid-Schiff and methenamine silver, in the lung, stomach, umbilical cord, and amnion. The presence of candida vaginitis in her mother supported the concept that Candida albicans was the etiological agent of the pulmonary candidiasis.
