 AB    Medical care of the hospital patient has become increasingly complicated
       due to the rising incidence of risk factors for opportunistic infection.
       With intravenous drug use, HIV infection, and alcoholism complicating an
       immunocompromised host such as a diabetic, fungal and mycobacterial
       infections are no longer as rare as in previous reports. The authors
       present a case of Candida osteomyelitis in a patient with multiple risk
       factors for opportunistic infection.
