esophageal candidiasis
Esophageal candidiasis is an opportunistic infection of the esophagus by ''Candida albicans''. The disease usually occurs in patients in immunocompromised states, including post-chemotherapy and in AIDS. However, it can also occur in patients with no predisposing risk factors, and is more likely to be asymptomatic in those patients. It is also known as candidal esophagitis or monilial esophagitis.
==Clinical presentation==
Patients with esophageal candidiasis present with odynophagia, or painful swallowing. Longstanding esophageal candidiasis can result in weight loss. There is often concomittant thrush.
Some patients present with esophageal candidiasis as a first presentation of systemic candidiasis.
