  • a) The patient must have been diagnosed with an esophageal candidiasis, documented according to the following criteria:
  • 1. Symptoms such as odynophagia (pain when swallowing), dysphagia, feeling of food adherence in the retrostemal area or retrostemal pain.
  • 2. Esophagoscopy with photographic documentation of the presence of characteristic mucosal plaques and evaluated prospectively as follows: Grade O = normal esophageal mucosa; Grade Vi = rare and scattered individual protruding plates, each with a size <2 mm; Grade I = scattered plaques with a size> 2 mm that cover less than 50% of the esophageal mucosa; Grade 2 = plates with a size> 2 mm that cover more than 50% of the esophageal mucosa; Grade 3 = confluent plates covering circumferentially more than half of the mucosa; Grade 4 = circumferential plates with narrowing of light despite insufflation.
  • 3. Brushing esophageal plate with a wet preparation and staining with PAS to demonstrate the presence of Candida pseudohyphae (one culture was also performed).
  • 4. biopsy esophageal lesions (to confirm the findings brushing) with histological evidence of pseudohyphae characteristics of Candida in conventional coloring, and confirmation by staining with silver methenamine, PAS or Giemsa; a crop will also be made.
  • b) Patients must be adults 18 to 65 years old (any sex).

  • 3. Platelet count> 10,000 / ul
  • 4. Creatinine within normal limits.
  • 5. Prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time within normal limits.
  • 6. AST (TGO) and ALT (TGP) 7. Alkaline phosphatase <1 V2 times the upper limit of normal
