| Abstract: | A case of acute emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) caused by Aspergillus fumigatus is reported in a non-diabetic patient, who did not apparently have any risk factors for fungal infection. The patient refused any surgical intervention and was successfully treated with liposomal amphoteracin-B and 5-flucytocin and achieved complete recovery. |
