A case of renal candidiasis is reported in a 4-year-old male Masked Palm civet (Paguma larvata) On necropsy, the kidneys were bilaterally swollen, pale and had numerous 1 to 3 mm diameter white foci throughout the parenchyma on cut section. The urinary bladder was filled with opaque and milky exudate. Histologically, severe infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages and necrosis were noted in the interstitial areas of both cortex and medulla and in the lumens of renal tubules and collecting duct often resulting in cystic dilation of the tubules. PAS-positive fungal yeasts or pseudohyphae were often associated with the lesion. Candida albicans was isolated from the kidney and urinary bladder.
