Peritonitis due to Candida albicans is both rare and severe. One of the two cases reported was consecutive to subtotal pancreatectomy for necrotizing pancreatitis and the other to perforated ulcer. Genuine C. albicans peritonitis should be distinguished from ascites with superinfection. It is usually due to intra-abdominal focal infection from a perforated hollow viscus. Depending on whether the infection is systemic or localized, antifungal drugs are administered systemically or topically. The surgical treatment is that of all peritonitis and meets with the usual of re-operation in search of deep residual septic foci. Cases with extraperitoneal candidiasis have a particularly poor prognosis.
