 AB    Candida epiglottitis has been reported in immunocompromised patients,
       but in only one paediatric patient with human immunodeficiency virus. We
       present possibly the first reported case of Candida infection of the
       epiglottis in an adult with human immunodeficiency virus treated with
       oral fluconazole. We review the symptoms, diagnosis, and management of
       the published cases of Candida epiglottitis in patients without the
       human immunodeficiency virus. Laryngoscopy and culture are diagnostic.
