Candida epiglottitis has been reported in immunocompromised patients, but in only one paediatric patient with human immunodeficiency virus. We present possibly the first reported case of Candida infection of the epiglottis in an adult with human immunodeficiency virus treated with oral fluconazole. We review the symptoms, diagnosis, and management of the published cases of Candida epiglottitis in patients without the human immunodeficiency virus. Laryngoscopy and culture are diagnostic.
免疫功能低下的患者中曾有念珠菌性会厌炎的报道,但仅见于一名感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的儿科患者。我们报告了可能是首例口服氟康唑治疗的感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的成年患者发生念珠菌性会厌感染的病例。我们回顾了未感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的患者中已发表的念珠菌性会厌炎病例的症状、诊断和治疗。喉镜检查和培养具有诊断意义。
