A single strain of Candida albicans associated with separate episodes of fungemia and meningitis

SD Porter, MA Noble and R Rennie
Department of Pathology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada.

All four isolates were shown to represent the same strain, indicating a relapse of infection rather than reinfection.
