HIV infection and parenteral drug abuse are at increased risk of developing Candida infection. Central nervous system (CNS) infection is an exceptional finding. We present fatal CNS infection by Candida humicola in drug abuser at late stage of HIV disease. In MEDLINE we have found only 3 reports about pathogenicity Candida humicola in humans (ophthalmopathy, conjunctivitis, melanonychia). Our case report suggests, that spectrum of pathogens dangerous to persons with AIDS increases.
HIV感染和静脉注射药物滥用会增加念珠菌感染的风险。中枢神经系统（CNS）感染是一种罕见的情况。我们报告了一名处于HIV疾病晚期的药物滥用者发生的由栖土曲霉引起的致命性CNS感染。在MEDLINE数据库中，我们仅发现3篇关于栖土曲霉对人类致病性的报告（眼病、结膜炎、甲下黑素沉着症）。我们的病例报告表明，对艾滋病患者构成危险的病原体种类有所增加。
