Abstract
We describe a case of fungaemia due to Candida pelliculosa (teleomorph: Hansenula anomala) in an otherwise non-immunocompromised patient with acute necrotizing pancreatitis of unknown origin. This species of Candida should be added to the list of pathogenic fungi which are increasingly important not only in patients with underlying immunosuppressive disease but also in patients with, for instance, severe surgical illness.Keywords
