Both disseminated candidiasis and pyomyositis are rare and mainly encountered in severely immunocompromised hosts. To our knowledge, Candida albicans related pyomyositis with formation of multiple visceral abscesses in a diabetic nephropathy patient has never previously been reported. A 47-year-old man with diabetic nephropathy and alcoholic liver disease developed disseminated candidiasis, with the initial presentation of pyomyositis. Debridement was performed and intravenous fluconazole commenced. Despite development of a single hepatic and multiple perinephric abscesses, the patient made a full recovery after completion of a 12-week course of intravenous fluconazole therapy. Candida species should be considered a potential pathogen in patients with predisposing factors.
