ABSTRACT

Existen pocos pacientes inmunodeprimidos o no, con implicación del tracto gastrointestinal por Cryptococcus neoformans, tanto en su manifestación local como enfermedad aislada y diseminada tipo criptococcemia. Reportamos un caso de criptococosis con compromiso esofágico, gástrico y duodenal en un paciente diagnosticado con SIDA C3. Según nuestro conocimiento, y búsqueda en la literatura, ha sido el único caso reportado en Colombia y América Latina.


There are very few patients, whether they are immunocompromised or not, with their gastrointestinal tracts compromised by Cryptococcus neoformans. This is true for both local manifestations as an isolated disease and for the disseminated disease of cryptococcoma. We report a case of cryptococcosis with esophageal, gastric and duodenal compromise in a patient diagnosed with Category 3 AIDS. To our knowledge after a search of the literature, this is the only reported case in Colombia and Latin America.
