RESUMO
We report a 71/2-year-boy with disseminated systemic cryptococcosis. Although other species have been incriminated, this appears to be the first report of Cryptococcus humicolus. The child was HIV negative. He was treated with amphotericin B and fluconazole with intensive supportive care. The child responded after 6 weeks and is now on maintenance fluconazole therapy.
