초록

Candida pelliculosa is a rare cause of human infection. In this report, we describe a case of infective endocarditis caused by C. pelliculosa in a patient with a prosthetic heart valve. A 72-year-old female presented with a complaint of blurred vision,which she had been experiencing over a period of four weeks. Transthroasic echocardiography showed vegetation on the prosthetic mitral valve. A blood culture isolate was confirmed as C. pelliculosa.
