Osteomielitis vertebral por Candida spp.

Abstract

Introduccion La osteomielitis vertebral por Candida spp. es una rara entidad que requiere de un alto indice de sospecha para su diagnostico. Metodos Descripcion de 3 casos de osteomielitis vertebral por Candida spp. diagnosticados durante un periodo de 17 anos. Resultados De 110 episodios de osteomielitis, tres fueron causadas por Candida spp. Los 3 pacientes presentaban factores predisponentes: diabetes mellitus (2/3), inmunosupresion (2/3), cateteres centrales (3/3), antibioticoterapia (2/3) y nutricion parenteral (2/3). El diagnostico se establecio mediante tecnicas de imagen y cultivo de la lesion vertebral en 2 casos y en el tercero, afectado de endocarditis aortica, por la presencia de hemocultivos positivos. En 2 pacientes la evolucion fue favorable con tratamiento medico y el tercero recidivo tras 6 meses de tratamiento con fluconazol. Conclusion La osteomielitis por Candida spp. es poco frecuente y debe sospecharse en pacientes con factores de riesgo para desarrollar una candidemia.
