Chronic systemic (hepatosplenic) candidiasis (CSC) is a syndrome of invasive candidiasis characterized by fever without localizing signs or symptoms. It occurs predominantly in patients with acute leukemia, after prolonged severe neutropenia. We report a young woman who underwent extensive chemotherapy for granulocytic sarcoma of the ovary; CSC then developed in this patient. She was successfully treated with fluconazole and liposomal amphotericin B. Clinical presentation, diagnostic problems, and the current successful treatment with fluconazole and liposomal amphotericin B are discussed.
