Abstract

Lithiasis by fungus ball is a serious complication of candiduria. Our case was a 58 year old man who presented an acute obstructive pyelonephritis. Ultrasound revealed a left ureteral lithiasis. Biological examination revealed Candida parapsilosis. Antifungal was beneficial with good evolution. Broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy is one factor favouring.
