Abstract

We report three cases of deep-seated and systemic Candida albicans infection in which inadequate dosages of fluconazole were used, leading to breakthrough fungaemia, candidal osteomyelitis and endocarditis. The need to modify fluconazole dosage in patients receiving continuous venovenous haemofiltration is discussed.
