摘要
Fungal infections of the spine are relatively uncommon. Moreover, cervical spondylocliscitis due to Candida albicans in non-immunocompromised patient is very rare. We report a case of Candida spondylodiscitis in a 64-year-old woman who complained of neck pain. The clinical feature and treatment option are presented with a review of pertinent literatures.
