    Abstract:
    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.
