A 78-year-old man with mild diabetes presented with dysuria and frequency of urination of 15 months' duration subsequent to urinary catheterization for cataract surgery. Multiple urine specimens revealed the presence of considerable quantities of yeast that were later identified as Candida lusitaniae. The patient responded well to irrigation of the bladder with amphotericin B.

Hereditary spastic paraplegia with thin corpus callosum is a rare degenerative disease, which is characterized by a progressive weakness of the lower limbs with a hypoplastic corpus callosum, and is often associated with other symptoms such as mental impairment, amyotrophy, sensory disturbances, dysuria, nystagmus and cataract. We describe two siblings (brother and sister) who showed a thin corpus callosum on MRI, one of whom showed the pure form of progressive spastic paraplegia, while the other showed predominant levodopa-responsive parkinsonism. The present cases are illustrative of a phenotypic heterogeneity in the same family of spastic paraplegia with a thin corpus callosum, despite the identical neuroimaging findings, and also presented another form of autosomal recessive juvenile levodopa-responsive parkinsonism.
