We report a case of candidemia due to <I>Candida krusei</I> after subarachinoid hemorrage. A 51 yearold male patient consulted us for high fever and increase of CRP 10 days post operation against subarachinoid hemorrage. There was a temporary decrease in the CRP after administration of ceftazidime (CAZ) but it again when treatment with CAZ was stopped. Because of detected Candida sp. by blood culture, fluconazole was administered i. v for 5 days, but <I>C. krusei</I> was positive during the treatment. Therefore, fluconazole was replaced with micafungin. The patient became better after the administration with micafungin for 14 days without side effect. Micafungin is effective against candidemia due to <I>C. krusei.</I>
