A patient suffering from leukemic transformation of a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma developed fatal disseminated candidiasis caused by a sucrose-negative variant of Candida tropicalis.

The course of infection and the tissue morphology of the etiological agent were indistinguishable from those of C. albicans and typical C. tropicalis strains.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
