Abstract

Fungal infections are common in immunocompromised patients. The presentation is often subtle and therefore treatment is delayed. Uretero-ileal anastomotic dehiscence due to candidal infection has never been reported before. This case represents an uncommon but potentially life-threatening complication in reconstructive surgery; that is, anastomotic dehiscence due to a unique etiology.
