Dysphagia secondary to invasive candidiasis of a jejunal free flap
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 June 2007
Abstract
The presence of a mass in a jejunal free flap that causes dysphagia less than two years after a pharyngolaryngectomy for carcinoma usually indicates tumour recurrence. We present a case of invasive candidiasis of a jejunal free flap presenting with dysphagia and a mass. To our knowledge this is previously unreported. Such a cause should always be considered in the differential diagnosis, as early recognition and treatment are likely, to result in a favourable outcome.
