Infection with Candida albicans can produce serious complications by compromising the vascular anastomosis. In such cases, the origin of Candida albicans is often in the gastrointestinal system. Here, we report 2 uncommon complications that occurred in the same patient. A 27-year-old female renal transplant patient with appendicitis presented to our institution with acute graft failure. The patient was treated with an appendectomy and a transplant nephrectomy. Subsequently, the patient had a mycotic pseudoaneurysm rupture of the external iliac artery secondary to Candida albicans infection that originated possibly in the gastrointestinal system. This complication was further treated with a cross-femoral bypass. The occurrence of these 2 complications together is rare.enRenal transplant recipientMycotic aneurysmAppendicitisIliac artery reconstructionCandida albicansCase Report932146-8427
