Premature infants, (in whom prolonged hyperalimentation long term indwelling catheters are used), serve as the ideal hosts for overwhelming Candida sepsis. Two cases of disseminated Candidiasis were studied. Case 1 had sonographically enlarged and highly echogenic kidneys. Case 2 had diffusely enlarged echogenic kidneys with actual fungus balls in the collecting system. This infant also developed hydrocephalus with debris in the ventricular system and abnormal brain parenchymal echogenicity.
使用长期高营养和长期留置导管的早产儿是发生严重念珠菌败血症的理想宿主。对两例播散性念珠菌病进行了研究。病例1超声检查显示肾脏增大且回声增强。病例2双肾弥漫性增大且回声增强，集合系统内有真菌球。该婴儿还出现了脑积水，脑室系统内有碎屑，脑实质回声异常。
