Deskripsi
Herein, we report a case of pancreatic cancer with acute cholangitis secondary to biliary obstruction. Empirical antibiotic therapy did not change the clinical presentation. Blood cultures were sterile; however, bile culture was positive for yeasts. Our laboratory analysis revealed a biliary coinfection by multidrug-resistant C. glabrata and C. albicans. The patient was successfully treated with endoscopic biliary drainage.
