 AB    A 13-month-old patient with autoimmune deficiency syndrome had renal
       candidiasis. An abnormal renal sonographic pattern of hyperechoic renal
       pyramids was demonstrated. This abnormal sonographic finding should
       suggest renal candidiasis in an immune suppressed child. In the normal
       kidney of children, the pyramids are hypoechoic. This pattern has not
       been noted in previous publications. We report this case.
