NSTIs caused by monomicrobial infections with <i>C. albicans</i> are rare and typically progress rapidly. We report a case of monomicrobial NSTI in an immunocompromised patient following bilateral lung transplantation characterized by atypical presentation and course, with <i>C. albicans</i> as the main pathogen.
